lcaGetEnumStrings

Calling Sequence

enum_states = lcaGetEnumStrings(pvs)

Description

Retrieve the symbolic values of all ENUM states of a number of PVs. Some PVs represent a selection of a particular value from a small (up to 16) set of possible values or states and the IOC designer may associate symbolic names with the permissible states. This call lets the user retrieve the symbolic names of all these states.

Parameters

pvs

Column vector (in matlab: m x 1 cell- matrix) of m strings.

enum_states

m x n (with n=16) matrix (on matlab: cell- matrix) of strings holding the ENUM states defined for the PVs.

Unused/undefined states -- this covers also the case when the PV does not support ENUM states -- are set to the empty string.
