SeaI/O User Manual
CEthernet API
The API to CCEthernet is easy to use, straightforward, and designed to be as user-
friendly as possible. Looking at the UML diagram, one can determine that there are
only six functions that the interface provides. Of those, only four are required for
basic operation. Sample code segments are provided in a later section. Each of the
methods are documented below, including the parameters and the associated return
codes.
