KB104945 - DOCERR: BEEPQQ and SLEEPQQ Deal in Milliseconds and Hz

SYMPTOMS

BEEPQQ(duration, frequency) duration (Integer*4; input) Length of the beep in microseconds. frequency (Integer*4; input) Frequency of the tone in KHz.

SLEEPQQ(duration) duration (Integer*4; input) The number of microseconds to sleep (delay program execution).

RESOLUTION

Make the following modifications on page 214 of your documentation:

 
   BEEPQQ(frequency, duration)
      frequency
         (Integer*4; input)    Frequency of the tone in Hz.
      duration
         (Integer*4; input)    Length of the beep in milliseconds.

   Remarks
      BEEPQQ does not return before the sound terminates.

Similarly, page 496 should be modified to reflect the following:

   SLEEPQQ(duration)
      duration
         (Integer*4; input)    The number of milliseconds to sleep (delay
                               program execution).
