Init_DA_Brds
Format
status = Init_DA_Brds (deviceNumber, deviceNumberCode)
Purpose
Initializes the hardware and software states of a National Instruments DAQ device to its
default state, and then returns a numeric device code that corresponds to the type of device
initialized. Any operation that the device is performing is halted. This function is called
automatically and does not have to be explicitly called by your application. This function is
useful for reinitializing the device hardware, for reinitializing the NI-DAQ software, and for
determining which device has been assigned to a particular slot number.
Init_DA_Brds will
clear all configured messages for the device just as if you called
Config_DAQ_Event_Message with a mode of 0.
