OID_WW_TAC_BATTERY_EXCEPTION

The OID_WW_TAC_BATTERY_EXCEPTION OID requests the miniport driver to return various NIC-related battery conditions. Protocols can query for these conditions or can request to receive these conditions if the status of the battery changes. Queries receive the most recently recorded conditions.

Return values from this request are limited to the values contained in the WW_TAC_BAT_EXCEPTION enumeration. The following lists the valid values.

  • DATATAC_BATX_OK
    No known battery-related errors occurred.

  • DATATAC_BATX_LOW
    Battery level is low; transmitter was disabled.

  • DATATAC_BATX_ERROR
    An unspecified battery-related error occurred. The battery should possibly be returned for service.

If any bound protocol has enabled indications with OID_WW_GEN_INDICATION_REQUEST, the miniport driver must call NdisMIndicateStatusto notify such protocol(s) that the status of the battery changed. It can ignore the TriggerValue member that was specified in the OID_WW_GEN_INDICATION_REQUEST.

Sets are irrelevant for this OID.

Note   This OID is not available for use beginning with Windows Vista.
