Get_Sysinfo routine

Retrieves critical system information, such as the OpenInsight serial number, the station ID, and the maximum number of users, from Open Engine.

Get_Sysinfo()

The following information is returned, in a tab delimited variable if using the System Receiver property of an edit box, or separated by commas if run from the System Monitor:

Note: Since Get_Sysinfo() is a routine, the result is not returned directly to the calling routine. However, by setting the System Receiver property of an edit box, the result can be returned in a window context. See the example below.

Serial(), RTI_GetNetworkUserName(), Receiver property

Returning System Information Using the System Monitor:

Enter the following:

RUN GET_SYSINFO

This will display system information delimited by commas.

Returning System Information from a Window:

/*  Create a window with an edit box named EDITBOX_RESULTS. If you don't want the edit box to display, uncheck the visible property.
Then create a button and place this code in the CLICK event of the button.

The code below will save system information as a field mark delimited array in an operating system file named C:\SYSINFO.TXT.\
*/

Set_Property ("SYSTEM", "RECEIVER", @window: ".EDITBOX_RESULTS")

Set_Property (@window: ".EDITBOX_RESULTS", "TEXT", "")

OSWRITE system_info on 'C:\sysinfo.txt'

* reset the receiver property to null.
