DFD Convert Structure VI

Digital Filter Design VIs and Functions

DFD Convert Structure VI

Owning Palette: Conversion VIs

Installed With: Digital Filter Design Toolkit

Converts the structure of a filter to a new structure that you specify.

Examples

 Place on the block diagram  Find on the Functions palette
filter in specifies the input filter.
target structure specifies the new structure you want to use to design the filter. You can select one of 23 structure types for FIR and IIR filters.

1FIR Direct Form (default)
2FIR Direct Form Transposed
3FIR Symmetric
4FIR Antisymmetric
5IIR Direct Form I
6IIR Direct Form I Transposed
7IIR Direct Form II
8IIR Direct Form II Transposed
9IIR Cascaded Second-Order Sections Form I
10IIR Cascaded Second-Order Sections Form I Transposed
11IIR Cascaded Second-Order Sections Form II
12IIR Cascaded Second-Order Sections Form II Transposed
13Lattice Allpass (basic sections)
14Lattice Allpass (one multiplier sections)
15Lattice Allpass (normalized sections)
16Lattice AR (basic sections)
17Lattice AR (one multiplier sections)
18Lattice AR (normalized sections)
19Lattice MA (minimum phase)
20Lattice MA (maximum phase)
21Lattice ARMA (basic sections)
22Lattice ARMA (one multiplier sections)
23Lattice ARMA (normalized sections)
error in describes error conditions that occur before this VI or function runs. The default is no error. If an error occurred before this VI or function runs, the VI or function passes the error in value to error out. This VI or function runs normally only if no error occurred before this VI or function runs. If an error occurs while this VI or function runs, it runs normally and sets its own error status in error out. Use the Simple Error Handler or General Error Handler VIs to display the description of the error code. Use error in and error out to check errors and to specify execution order by wiring error out from one node to error in of the next node.
status is TRUE (X) if an error occurred before this VI or function ran or FALSE (checkmark) to indicate a warning or that no error occurred before this VI or function ran. The default is FALSE.
code is the error or warning code. The default is 0. If status is TRUE, code is a nonzero error code. If status is FALSE, code is 0 or a warning code.
source specifies the origin of the error or warning and is, in most cases, the name of the VI or function that produced the error or warning. The default is an empty string.
filter out returns the filter with the new structure.
error out contains error information. If error in indicates that an error occurred before this VI or function ran, error out contains the same error information. Otherwise, it describes the error status that this VI or function produces. Right-click the error out front panel indicator and select Explain Error from the shortcut menu for more information about the error.
status is TRUE (X) if an error occurred or FALSE (checkmark) to indicate a warning or that no error occurred.
code is the error or warning code. If status is TRUE, code is a nonzero error code. If status is FALSE, code is 0 or a warning code.
source describes the origin of the error or warning and is, in most cases, the name of the VI or function that produced the error or warning.
