NAME

	CardProgramVoltage -- Set programming voltage.

SYNOPSIS

	success=CardProgramVoltage( handle, voltage );
a1 d0
LONG CardProgramVoltage( struct CardHandle *, ULONG );

FUNCTION

	Used to set programming voltages (e.g., for FLASH-ROM/EPROM
cards).

INPUTS

	handle - Same handle as that used when OwnCard() was called.
voltage - See card.i/h for valid values.

RESULT

	1  - Successful.
0 - Not successful. Most likely because the credit-card
card has been removed, and you are no longer the owner.
-1 - This function is not being supported. On some machines
with a minimal (hardware) credit-card interface, this feature
may not be possible.

NOTES

	This function may be called from within a task, or from a level 1
or level 2 interrupt.
!!!WARNING!!!
Flash-ROM programming requires careful coding to prevent
leaving the Erase command on too long. Failure to observe
the maximum time between the Erase command, and the Erase-Verify
command can make a Flash-ROM card unusable. Some Flash-ROM cards
may provide an internal watch-dog timer which protects the card.
Because of the relatively long time (e.g., 10ms) between Erase, and
Erase-Verify which must be observed, the need for such critical
timing can be problematic on a multi-tasking machine.
Vendors of Flash-ROM's recommend a high priority interrupt
generated by a 10ms timer be used to turn off Erase. On the
Amiga this can be accomplished by using a CIA-B interval timer.
The timer.device also provides a mechanism for generating a low
priority interrupt. The timer.device is easier to use than CIA
interval timers, though not as accurate or as safe.
Even if the Flash-ROM card provides an internal watch-dog timer,
implementation of the code during Erase should assume that
the Flash-ROM does not.
