comedi_arm_channel - arm a subdevice channel

#include <comedilib.h>

int comedi_arm_channel(comedi_t * device, unsigned int subdevice, unsigned int channel, unsigned int source);

alpha

This function arms a specified channel of a subdevice. It may, for example, arm a counter to begin counting. The source parameter specifies what source should trigger the subdevice to begin. The possible sources are driver-dependant. This function is only useable on subdevices that provide support for the INSN_CONFIG_ARM configuration instruction. Some subdevices treat this as an instruction to arm the whole subdevice and ignore the specified channel. For such subdevices, comedi_arm is normally called instead.

0 on success, -1 on error.
