Synopsis
Inquire about a system setting.
Syntax
MIL_INT MsysInquire(
MIL_ID SysId, //in
MIL_INT64 InquireType, //in
void *UserVarPtr //out
)
Description

This function inquires about the specified system setting.

Note that you can use MsysControl() to control specific system settings.

You can also interactively inquire most of the system settings in real-time, using Matrox Intellicam's Feature Browser.

Note that this function reference has not been updated for a MIL system added during a MIL update. Refer to the MIL system's release note to see which MIL system’s documentation you should use in its place and any possible differences.
Parameters
This function is not supported on the selected boards.
This function reference has not been updated for the selected MIL system. To show the content of this page, choose a second MIL system; refer to the MIL system's release note to see which MIL system’s documentation to choose and any possible differences.
Parameters
SysId

Specifies the system identifier. This parameter should be set to one of the following values:

function map For the system identifier
CollapseValue Description
Collapse M_DEFAULT_HOST

Specifies the default Host system of the current MIL application.
Collapse MIL system identifier

Specifies a valid system identifier, which you have allocated using the MsysAlloc() function.
InquireType

Specifies the type of system setting about which to inquire.

See the Parameter associations section for possible values that can be specified.

UserVarPtr
Accepts the address of one of the following (see the Parameter associations section for specifics on which is expected):
  • array of type MIL_TEXT_CHAR
  • MIL_DOUBLE
  • MIL_ID
  • MIL_INT
  • MIL_INT64

Specifies the address in which to write the requested information. Since the MsysInquire() function also returns the requested information, you can set this parameter to M_NULL.

See the Parameter associations section for possible values that can be returned.

Parameter associations

The tables below list possible values for the InquireType parameter and possible values returned to the UserVarPtr parameter.

The following inquire types allow you to inquire general system settings.

Unless otherwise specified, the following values require that you pass the UserVarPtr parameter the address of a MIL_INT.
