API Functions | Signal Hound
Description
The function allows you to configure additional parameters of the real-time frames returned from the
API. If this function is not called a scale of 100dB is used and a frame rate of 30fps is used. For more
information regarding real-time mode see Modes of Operation : Real-Time Analysis.
Return Values
bbNoError Device sucessfully configured.
bbDeviceNotOpenErr The device handle provided does not point to an open device.
bbAdjustedParameter The parameter frameScale or frameRate fell outside the range of
acceptable values and was clamped.
bbInitiate
Change the operating state of the device
bbStatus bbInitiate(int device, unsigned int mode, unsigned int flag);
Parameters
device Handle to the device being configured.
mode The possible values for mode are BB_SWEEPING, BB_REAL_TIME,
BB_AUDIO_DEMOD, and BB_STREAMING.
flag The default value should be zero.
If the mode is equal to BB_STREAMING, the flag can contain
BB_STREAM_IQ for standard I/Q streaming or BB_STREAM_IF for direct
IF digital samples.
flag can be used to inform the API to time stamp data using an external
GPS reciever. Mask the bandwidth flag (‘|’ in C) with BB_TIME_STAMP
to achieve this. See Appendix:Using a GPS Receiver to Time-Stamp
Data for information on how to set this up.
Description
bbInitiate() configures the device into a state determined by the mode parameter. For more
information regarding operating states, refer to the Theory of Operation and Modes of Operation
sections. This function calls bbAbort() before attempting to reconfigure. It should be noted, if an error
is returned, any past operating state will no longer be active.
Return Values
bbNoError Device successfully configured
bbDeviceNotOpenErr The device handle provided does not point to an open device.
bbInvalidParameterErr The value for mode did not match any known value.
