Mr. Balasch,
 
The iGetMarkChanVV_EDB method is a little confusing. It retrieves the "Marked" data for a specific channel. The "mark" in this case would be the start and end fiducial and not the channel that is marked. Thus, if you have channel "Z" selected from fids 10 to 25, this function can be used to retrieve values in fids 10 to 25 from any channel, even those that are not loaded.
 
I have updated the documentation for this function to make this clear.

Subject: [gxnet]: GetMarkChanVV_EDB

Hi everyone,
 
I'm having trouble understanding the syntax for iGetMarkChanVV_EDB(), specifically the third item. The EDB.GXH file gives the syntax as iGetMarkChanVV_EDB(EDB, VV, int) where int is the channel symbol to retreive. The third item seems redundant(and kind of useless) to me and I don't evn know exactly how I'm supposed to handle it.
 
It seems redundant that if the channel is marked, why do you have to tell what channel symbol to retreive? The channel to retrieve is the marked channel, it seems to me that the symbiol for the channel is irrelevant. Also, in spite of what I just said, it seems that it would be easier(it would save having to cast to a different data format) if instead of an int, the appropriate data item was a channel handle.
