Api.SetConfiguredIoCount method

Configures a number of simulated I/O modules. The number of simulated I/Os is determined by how much the given value exceeds the number of the real hardware. If the given number is greater than the number of the real I/Os, KINGSTAR will display all real I/Os plus simulated ones. For example, if you have five real I/Os and you give the number seven, you'll get five real I/Os plus two simulated I/Os. If the given number is less than or equal to the number of the real I/Os, KINGSTAR will display all real I/Os without simulated ones.

Syntax

C#VB

public KsError SetConfiguredIoCount(
       int Count
)

Public Function SetConfiguredIoCount(
       Count As Integer
) As KsError

Parameters

Count

Type: int

The number of simulated I/O modules. The maximum is 256.

Return value

Type: KsError

A return code of a method.

Remarks

This method is only available for use with simulated I/O modules. Simulated I/O modules must be created using SetConfiguredIoCount before they are configured with ConfigureIo. This method must be called after Create and before Start. Once the link is established the simulated I/O modules cannot be modified.
