• reg - DAC register to get - dacAD5422Status, dacAD5422Data, dacAD5422Control, dacLowWeight, dacMaxOutput, dacOutputRange, dacScaleAssign, dacHighWeight, or dacGrossNet
• wait - WAIT_ACK Wait for acknowledgement, NO_WAIT_ACK do not wait for acknowledgement

Return Value

Examples

   int dac = 1; // number of dac card - not number of slot

   // This sets the DAC output for manual control
   int result = GetDAC(dac, dacAD5422Control, WAIT_ACK);
   DisplayText(0, 0, "GetDAC control result = " + IntToStr(result));
