Once it receives that command, the ARM7 executes it by manipulating the PMIC. Therefore, this function may not operate instantly after you call it. Before you use this function, use the <A href="PM_Init.html"><CODE>PM_Init</CODE></A> function to initialize the PM library. (The <code>PM_Init</code> function has to be called only once. Also, when you call the <a href="../../os/init/OS_Init.html"><code>OS_Init</code></a> function, there is no need to call the <a href="PM_Init.html"><code>PM_Init</code></a> function separately because it is called from inside <code>OS_Init</code>.)</P> 87<P><FONT color="#ff0000">This function can be used from an interrupt handler.

If you call this function while another process is using it, this function sends a command to the ARM7; there, the SPI is determined to be BUSY, and <CODE>PM_RESULT_BUSY</CODE> is notified to the ARM9 without actually processing this function. Likewise, if you call this function while another PM process is running, that fact is determined on the ARM9 side and this function returns <CODE>PM_RESULT_BUSY</CODE>. (In this case, the determination is made before notification is sent to the ARM7.)</P> 90<P>Accordingly, if you want to make certain that this function will succeed, make it loop until it succeeds as shown below.
