KPADDisableDPD

Syntax

#include <revolution/kpad.h>

void KPADDisableDPD( s32 chan );

Arguments

chan One of the WPAD_CHANn values.

Return Values

None.

Description

This function internally calls the WPADControlDpd and WPADSetDataFormat functions, and issues requests to turn off the DPD module for the Wii remote and to change the data format. Turning the DPD module OFF is a way to reduce the Wii Remote's power consumption.

The library attempts to issue requests when data is received from the Wii Remote. If issuing a request fails, the system tries again the next time data is received. If issuing a request succeeds, the timer in the WPAD library for automatically disconnecting is reset because the data format changes.
