GetCapabilities

unsigned int WINAPI GetCapabilities(AndorCapabilities* caps)

Description

This function will fill in an AndorCapabilities structure with the capabilities associated with

the connected camera. Before passing the address of an AndorCapabilites structure to the

function the ulSize member of the structure should be set to the size of the structure. In

C++ this can be done with the line:

caps->ulSize = sizeof(AndorCapabilities);

Individual capabilities are determined by examining certain bits and combinations of bits in

the member variables of the AndorCapabilites structure. The next few pages contain a

summary of the capabilities currently returned.

Parameters

Andor capabilities* caps: the

capabilities structure to be filled in.

Return

unsigned int

DRV_NOT_INITIALIZED

DRV_SUCCESS

DRV_P1INVALID

System not initialized

Invalid caps parameter (i.e. NULL).
