SetChannelSamples8(byte[],int) Method

Summary

Sets 8-bit data for a channel.

Syntax

C++

public int SetChannelSamples8( 
   byte[] samples, 
   int count 
)

Public Overloads Function SetChannelSamples8( _ 
   ByVal samples() As Byte, _ 
   ByVal count As Integer _ 
) As Integer

public: 
int SetChannelSamples8(  
   array<byte>^ samples, 
   int count 
)

samples
Buffer that holds the new channel sample

count
Size of the channel sample buffer

The actual number of samples set for the channel

Remarks

This method sets the new samples for a channel. Before calling the SetChannelSamples8 method, be sure to call SetSampleInterpretation to set the waveform sample interpretation.
The number of samples actually set will be less than or equal to the "Number of samples per channel" (003A, 0010) in the multiplex group that represents the parent of this channel. To get that number, call the GetNumberOfSamplesPerChannel method.
This method is intended to be used for setting the data of 8-bit channels where the "Waveform Sample Interpretation" (5400,1006) is signed 8-bit linear DicomWaveformSampleInterpretationType.Signed8BitLinear, unsigned 8-bit linear DicomWaveformSampleInterpretationType.Unsigned8BitLinear, 8-bit mu-law DicomWaveformSampleInterpretationType.Mulaw8Bit or 8-bit A-law DicomWaveformSampleInterpretationType.Alaw8Bit. To get the waveform sample interpretation, use the GetSampleInterpretation method.
