[sane-devel] Can sensors be set to a value?

[Simon Matter]

Hi,

I'm using sane-backends-1.0.24 to access a new Fujitsu fi-7160.

The manpage shows this in the Sensor section:

    --function <int> [0] [hardware]
        Function character on screen

My question is, is there a way to set a sensor value by software, not
using the buttons on the device?

The main question is because Fujitsu has changed the default function to 0
in the newest device series while it was 1 in older devices like the
fi-6130.

Regards,
Simon
