Defines whether the point is valid. Where custom addressing is used, both the domain_index and offset for the point must be determined.
You can find the template for this subroutine in:
usrtm_valpt.c
Syntax
void user_valid_point(device_struct, address_struct,
valid_pt, comm_status, status)
DEVICE_DATA *device_struct;
ADDR_DATA *address_struct
int *valid_pt;
int *comm_status;
int *status;
Input Parameters
device_struct
Is a pointer to the structure defining device data. DEVICE_DATA is a typedef to a structure defined in <inc_path/toolkit.h>.
address_struct
Is a pointer to the address from which the data was read. ADDR_DATA is a typedef to a structure defined in <inc_path/toolkit.h>.
Output Parameters
valid_pt
Defines whether the point is valid. Valid values are:
TOOLKIT_SUCCESS |
The point is valid |
TOOLKIT_FAILURE |
The point is not valid |
valid_pt is not a Boolean value.
comm_status
Indicates whether a status of TOOLKIT_FAILURE occurred as a result of a communication failure. Valid values are:
TOOLKIT_SUCCESS |
Failure is not due to communications failure. |
TOOLKIT_FAILURE |
Failure is due to communications failure. |
status
Indicates whether the function read all the data. Valid values are:
TOOLKIT_SUCCESS |
Function completed successfully. |
TOOLKIT_FAILURE |
Function did not complete successfully. Check comm_status to see if the failure was the result of a communication failure. |
Return Value
None.
