6.4.1.12 Get Real Hardware Version — DIO_TC_realHardwareVersion

Gets the real version number of the board from the driver using

IOCTL_QUERY_REALHWVERSION.

SUPPORTED IN VERSION 5.02 ONWARDS.

This is like DIO_TC_hardwareVersion except that the reported value is not limited to the

maximum value supported by the driver and DLL for the card. This allows an application to

check whether the card has a particular feature or bug-fix that is not necessarily supported by

the current driver or DLL.

If the function returns ERRSUPPORT, the real hardware version could not be determined due

to the driver version in use, but the reported version will be set to the value reported by

DIO_TC_hardwareVersion instead.

i = DIO_TC_realHardwareVersion (h, pver)

where h short: board handle as issued by the

registerBoardEx function.

pver pointer to unsigned long: pointer to variable

where hardware version result will be stored.

By default, it is set to 0. If the driver detects an

enhanced version of a board, it is set to a

number greater than 0.
