IMX.New()

Description

Create a new class IMX object.

 

This object is a software construct that must be associated with a physical IMX8 before it is useful.

 

Similar to class PSTAT objects, an IMX object does not need to be associated with specific IMX8 hardware when IMX.New() is called. If a system contains more than one IMX8, the user can select among the available multiplexers in the Setup() function's dialog box.

 

The associated IMX8 is identified by a IMX8No variable.
