Syntax

WORD vsin_mode( handle, device, mode )
WORD handle, device, mode;

Function      vsin_mode() chooses between request or sample mode for the
              specified device.

Opcode        33

Availability  Supported in ROM by all Atari computers.

Parameters    handle specifies a valid workstation handle. A mode value of
              REQUEST_MODE (1) sets the device to operate in request mode
              whereas a value of SAMPLE_MODE (2) operates the device in
              sample mode. Valid devices are:

              Name    devide  Device

              LOCATOR   1     Locator

              VALUATOR  2     Valuator

              CHOICE    3     Choice

              STRING    4     String

Binding       contrl[0] = 33;
              contrl[1] = 0;
              contrl[3] = 2;
              contrl[6] = handle;

              intin[0] = device;
              intin[1] = mode;

              vdi();

              return intout[0];

Return Value  vsin_mode() returns mode.

Comments      Using this function will cause the AES to function
              improperly.
