DAQmx Switch Set Topology and Reset

DAQmx - Data Acquisition VIs and Functions

DAQmx Switch Set Topology and Reset

Resets a switch device and sets its topology to the one you specify in topology name. Use this VI to initialize a switch device before scanning or making connections to ensure the initial state of the switch device.

This VI differs from the DAQmx Reset Device VI because it uses the input topology name rather than the one you specify in MAX. This VI does not modify the channel usage defaults you configure in MAX.

civrn.gif switch device is the name of the switch device this operation applies to. A DAQmx device name constant lists all devices, including switches, installed in the system.
civrn.gif topology name is the switch topology to use on the device. A DAQmx switch constant or control lists all topologies supported by devices installed in the system.
cerrcodeclst.gif 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 runs normally and passes the error in value to error out. 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.
cbool.gif 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.
ci32.gif code is the error or warning code. The default is 0. If status is TRUE, code is a negative error code. If status is FALSE, code is 0 or a warning code.
cstr.gif source identifies where an error occurred. The source string includes the name of the VI that produced the error, what inputs are in error, and how to eliminate the error.
ierrcodeclst.gif 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 indicator on the front panel and select Explain Error from the shortcut menu for more information about the error.
ibool.gif status is TRUE (X) if an error occurred or FALSE (checkmark) to indicate a warning or that no error occurred.
ii32.gif 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.
istr.gif source identifies where and why an error occurred. The source string includes the name of the VI that produced the error, what inputs are in error, and how to eliminate the error.
