§ brp_Sys_GetPartNumber()

brp_errcode brp_Sys_GetPartNumber ( brp_Sys_GetPartNumber_t  params)

This command returns the part number and the hardware revision number of the device.

This information, which is usually also printed on the label, allows you to identify the reader model type for e.g. reorder purposes.

Don't use this command to distinguish the device features in your application! Use brp_Sys_GetFeatures() instead. The reason is: Baltech may offer (replacement) products with the same or a similar feature set, which have different part numbers. If the application would stick to a certain part number these devices would not be deployable.

Parameters
[in]paramsStruct with the following fields:
  • protocol used to execute the command
  • PartNo (out) Part number
  • HwRevNo (out) Hardware revision number
  • mempool (in) is used to store response data. Maybe NULL to use an internal mempool, in this case the data is only available until another command uses the internal mempool
