1.3.1 OcaDeviceManager

Class Hierarchy:

class OcaDeviceManager : OcaManager 

Mandatory manager that contains information relevant to the whole device.

Must be instantiated once in every device.

Must have object number 1.

Properties:

static const OcaClassID ClassID = "1.3.1"

Number that uniquely identifies the class. Note that this differs from the object number, which identifies the instantiated object. This property is an override of the OcaRoot property.

This property has id 3.1.

static const OcaClassVersionNumber ClassVersion = 2

Identifies the interface version of the class. Any change to the class definition leads to a higher class version. This property is an override of the OcaRoot property.

This property has id 3.2.

OcaModelGUID ModelGUID

Read-only property that identifies the model of the device. Note this property is not equivalent to a MAC address, because (a) MAC addresses identify individual devices, not models, and (b) MAC addresses are Ethernet-specific, but an OCA device need not have an Ethernet port.

This property has id 3.1.

OcaString SerialNumber

Read-only property that identifies the serial number of the CAP device.

This property has id 3.2.

OcaModelDescription ModelDescription

Read-only property that contains text names for this model, its manufacturer, and its version.

This property has id 3.3.

OcaString DeviceName

Name of the device. Should be unique manufacturer-qualified identifier.

This property has id 3.4.

OcaUint16 OcaVersion

Read-only property that indicates the AES70 version number used by the device.

This property has id 3.5.

OcaString DeviceRole

Role of device in application (arbitrary).

This property has id 3.6.

OcaString UserInventoryCode

Code used for equipment tracking.

This property has id 3.7.

OcaBoolean Enabled

Indicates whether the device is enabled (and therefore operational).

This property has id 3.8.

OcaDeviceState State

Read-only property that indicates the current state of the device.

This property has id 3.9.

OcaBoolean Busy

True iff device is working on something and is not available for OCA command activity. Readonly.

This property has id 3.10.

OcaResetCause ResetCause

Read-only attribute that indicates the reset cause of the last reset.

This property has id 3.11.

OcaString Message

Arbitrary text message provided by controller. Display and handling of the text is device-dependent and not defined by OCA.

This property has id 3.12.

OcaList<OcaManagerDescriptor> Managers

List of all manager objects instantiated in this device.

This property has id 3.13.

const OcaString DeviceRevisionID

Overall device revision identifier. Format of string is manufacturer-specific. Readonly. May be changed by proprietery functions of firmware upload processes.

This property has id 3.14.

This method has id 3.10.

Parameters: OcaString Code – Input parameter.

OcaStatus GetEnabled(OcaBoolean &enabled)

Gets the value of the Enabled property. The return value indicates whether the property was successfully retrieved.

This method has id 3.11.

Parameters: OcaBoolean enabled – Output parameter.
