Return Value
All API functions return API_OK if no error occurred. If the return value is not
equal to API_OK the function ApiGetErrorDescription can be used to obtain an
error description.
Note: All count parameters and bus load parameters are cleared on restart of the
AIM board Bus Monitor when the ApiCmdBMStart’ function is called.
