RawIr.dll Methods and Properties.


Basic4ppc homepage

 

ActivateLed(0 or 1), device specific,  flashes the Led on and off.
I use it to show the port is open.

DeActivateLed(0 or 1) stops flashing the Led.
I use it to show the port is closed.

Warning ish. This was first done on a non phone PPC.
On some Phone PPC devices this actually starts/stops the vibrate function :-)
If you ActivateLed (?) then quit your program before issuing DeActivate(?), the Led will continue to flash,
or will continue to Vibrate until you re-run your app and call this command, or perform a soft reset.

Thanks to DZT from the Basic4ppc forum for the above.
