Configuration information functions

The following functions retrieve information about a system configuration or specific board. They also set the time or native play and record parameters:

Function	Synchronous/ Asynchronous	Description
adiGetBoardInfo	Synchronous	Retrieves information about the board.
adiGetBoardSlots adiGetBoardSlots32	Synchronous	Retrieves the board's MVIP configuration.
adiGetContextInfo	Synchronous	Retrieves the context status and configuration.
adiGetEEPromData	Synchronous	Retrieves OEM data for a given board.
adiGetTimeStamp	Synchronous	Converts an event timestamp to a count of the seconds elapsed since January 1, 1970.
adiSetBoardClock	Synchronous	Sets the time on an AG board or CG board.
adiSetNativeInfo	Synchronous	Sets parameters that enable applications to play and record media to and from RTP streams. In addition, this function enables applications to play media recorded from an RTP stream to a PSTN port and vise versa.

Board functions communicate only with the board's driver and not directly with the board. When opening the ADI service to use these functions, you do not specify an MVIP address. The board_number parameter in the mvipaddr structure can be set to ADI_AG_DRIVER_ONLY.
