cfGetOutputState

Syntax

int cfGetOutputState(CF_HANDLE server, CF_OUTPUT_STATE *state);

Description

Returns the output state of the Agilent MCCD when the run state is CF_IDLE. The server argument can be either a handle to a group obtained by cfOpenGroup, or a handle to all cells in the instrument if no groups are defined. The possible return values are:

CF_OUTPUT_OFF	The output state of the Agilent MCCD is off.
CF_OUTPUT_CHARGE	The output of the Agilent MCCD is in the charging state.
CF_OUTPUT_DISCHARGE	The output of the Agilent MCCD is in the discharging state.

In the OFF state, the channel outputs are open-circuited and supply no current. In the charge and discharge states, channel outputs are controlled by cfSetVoltage and cfSetCurrent.
