Programming element Description

CE_BATTERY_DEAD

Indicates a dead battery on the PC Card. This event is signaled through the BVD1 pin, which can also be accessed through the pin replacement register (PRR).

CE_BATTERY_LOW

Indicates a low battery on the PC Card. This event is signaled through the BVD2 pin, which can also be accessed through the PRR.

CE_CARD_LOCK

Indicates that the hardware card lock is closed.

CE_CARD_READY

Indicates that a PC Card has changed from a busy to a ready state.

CE_CARD_REMOVAL

Indicates that a PC Card has been removed from the socket.

CE_CARD_UNLOCK

Indicates that the hardware card lock is open.

CE_INSERTION_COMPLETE

Indicates that a PC Card has been inserted.

CE_PM_RESUME

Indicates that the system has resumed after being powered down and is now running.

CE_PM_SUSPEND

Indicates that the system has just returned from a suspended state and that any CE_CARD_INSERTION and CE_CARD_REMOVAL codes received before the next CE_PM_RESUME code are likely to be invalid.

CE_EXCLUSIVE_COMPLETE

Indicates that a driver's CardRequestExclusive request has taken place.

  • The first 16 bits of the first parameter is the bus number. The last 16 bits is the interface type.
  • The second parameter is the device slot number.

CE_POWER_CYCLE_OFF

Indicates that a PC Card has been powered off.
