Data Type Reference

Description

All the defines listed below can be found in the include file DSCUD.H. This file MUST be included in the C source file of the application using the universal driver.

NOTE: Proper care MUST be taken to ensure that the include file that is released along with the particular version of the Universal Driver is included in the application.

If the include file is from the Universal driver 6.00 and the library against which the applications is linked is from universal driver version 6.01, the driver would throw an error when running dscInit.

Recommended Usage of structures

It is recommended by DSC that any of the structures used should be initialized to 0 before using the same in the user code.

For example ...

DSCADSETTINGS adsettings ;

memset ( &adsettings , 0 , sizeof ( DSCADSETTINGS ) ) ;
