    On return, a Boolean variable containing the state of the ring-indicator bit. Set this value to YES when the bit is set.

  • dcd:

    On return, a Boolean variable containing the state of the data-carrier-detect bit. Set this value to YES when the bit is set.

Return Value

kIOReturnSuccess on success, or another value if an error occurs. See Error Codes.
