.SH SYNOPSIS

SHORTSIZ16 e1432_octave_ctl(E1432ID hw, SHORTSIZ16 ID, SHORTSIZ16 cmd)
.cE
.SH DESCRIPTION

\fIe1432_octave_ctl\fR sends an Octave measurement command
to the modules(s) selected.

This parameter is a "global" parameter.  It applies to an entire
module rather than to one of its channels.  The \fIID\fR parameter is
used only to identify which module the function applies to.

\fIhw\fR must be the result of a successful call to
\fIe1432_assign_channel_numbers\fR, and specifies the group of
hardware to talk to.

\fIID\fR is either the ID of a group of channels that was obtained
with a call to \fIe1432_create_channel_group\fR, or the ID of a single
channel.
It is used to determine which module(s) in \fIhw\fR to send the command to.

\fIcmd\fR must be one of \fBE1432_OCTAVE_CTL_STOP\fR,
\fBE1432_OCTAVE_CTL_RESTART\fR or \fBE1432_OCTAVE_CTL_CONTINUE\fR.

\fIe1432_octave_ctl\fR is currently inactive.

.SH "RETURN VALUE"
Return 0 if successful, a (negative) error number otherwise.
