The ATMI ACM driver cannot be used as a server.

6. Driver Notes

6.1Data position in the Data Arrays

To understand how the driver stores data for the current port, read the notes provided with map- descriptor example 2 as the following notes do not apply.

To understand how the driver stores data for malfunctions, read the notes provided with map- descriptor example 3 as the following notes do not apply.

For each component stored the values are stored as a one-dimensional array. Data storage is zero referenced. This means that the first area or first gas is stored in the first location, which has an index of zero. To find the element of interest use the following formula.

Port Alarm / Warnings / Gas Values Data Array locations

Port_Index = (Gas_number-1) + 16 * ( Area_Number – 1 )

‘Area’ and ‘Port’ are synonyms.

Example. If you wish to know the Data Array index for gas #7 of area 11

Index = (7-1) + 16 * ( 10 – 1 ) = 166

Example. If you wish to know the Data Array index for the 7th gas of area 11

Index = 7 + 16 * ( 10 – 1 ) = 167.

Slot Alarm / Warnings / Values Data Array locations

Slot_Index = (Gas_number-1) + 16 * ( Slot_Number – 1 )

Example. The Data Array location for gas #12 of Slot 4

Index = (12-1) + ( 4 – 1 ) * 16 = 59
