XDeviceBell(3X11)	  X FUNCTIONS		XDeviceBell(3X11)

NAME
       XDeviceBell  -  ring  a bell on a device supported through
       the input extension

SYNTAX
       Status	XDeviceBell(display,	device, feedbackclass,
       feedbackid, percent)
	     Display *display;
	     XDevice *device;
	     XID *feedbackclass;
	     XID *feedbackid;
	     int *percent;

ARGUMENTS
       display	Specifies the connection to the X server.

       device	Specifies  the	device	with which the bell is
		   associated.

       feedbackclass
		   Specifies the class of the feedback with which
		   the bell is associated.

       feedbackid  Specifies  the  id  of the feedback with which
		   the bell is associated.

       percent	Specifies the volume in the range -100 to  100
		   at which the bell should be rung.

DESCRIPTION
       The  XDeviceBell request causes the server to ring a bell
       on the specified feedback of the specified device, if pos-
       sible.	The specified volume is relative to the base vol-
       ume for the bell.  If an invalid device	is  specified,	a
       BadDevice  error will be returned.  The feedbackclass and
       feedbackid parameters contain values returned by an  XGet-
       FeedbackControl	request and uniquely identify the bell to
       ring.  If a feedbackclass is specified that does not  sup-
       port  a bell, or if a nonexistent feedbackid is specified,
       or a percent value is specified that is not in  the  range
       -100 to 100, a BadValue error will be returned.

       The  volume  at	which  the  bell is rung when the percent
       argument is nonnegative is:

	      base - [(base * percent) / 100] + percent

       The volume at which the bell rings when the percent  argu-
       ment is negative is:

	      base + [(base * percent) / 100]

       To  change  the	base volume of the bell, use XChangeFeed-
       backControl.

XDeviceBell(3X11)	  X FUNCTIONS		XDeviceBell(3X11)

       XDeviceBell can generate a BadDevice or a BadValue  error.

DIAGNOSTICS
       BadDevice   An  invalid	device was specified.  The speci-
		   fied device does not exist, or  has	not  been
		   opened by this client via XOpenInputDevice.

       BadValue An  invalid feedbackclass, feedbackid, or per-
		   cent value was specified.
