ViStatus IviPwrMeter_ConfigureAveragingAutoEnabled (ViSession vi, ViConstString channelName, ViBoolean autoAveragingEnabled);

Purpose

This function enables or disables the auto-averaging mode for a given channel.

Parameters

Name Type Description
vi ViSession The ViSession handle that you obtain from the IviPwrMeter_init or IviPwrMeter_InitWithOptions function. The handle identifies a particular instrument session.

Default Value: None

channelName ViConstString The name of the channel to be configured.

Pass the virtual channel name that you assign to the instrument in the Configuration Utility.

Virtual channel names are aliases for instrument-specific channel strings. The instrument-specific channel strings can differ from one instrument to another. Virtual channel names allow you to use and swap instruments without having to change the channel names in your source code. You assign a virtual channel name to an instrument-specific channel through the Configuration Utility in MAX. This control accepts virtual channel names you have assigned to the specific instrument you are using. It also accepts the instrument-specific channel names.

Default Value: ""

Notes: You can specify the channel name as a string variable or as a literal enclosed in double quotes.

autoAveragingEnabled ViBoolean The auto-averaging mode. Pass VI_TRUE to turn auto-averaging on. Pass VI_FALSE to turn auto-averaging off. The driver sets the IVIPWRMETER_ATTR_AVERAGING_AUTO_ENABLED attribute to this value.

Valid Values:
VI_TRUE - "On"
VI_FALSE - "Off"

Default Value:
VI_TRUE - "On"

Return Values
