DAQmx Write

Writes samples to the task or virtual channels you specify. The instances of this polymorphic VI specify the format of the samples to write, whether to write one or multiple samples, and whether to write to one or multiple channels.

If the task uses on-demand timing, this VI returns only after the device generates all samples. On-demand is the default timing type if you do not use the DAQmx Timing VI. If the task uses any timing type other than on-demand, this VI returns immediately and does not wait for the device to generate all samples. Your application must determine if the task is done to ensure that the device generated all samples.

The DAQmx Write properties include additional configuration options for write operations.

Use the pull-down menu to select an instance of this VI.

Place on the block diagram.

Find on the Functions palette.

Analog DBL 1Chan 1Samp 

Writes a floating-point sample to a task that contains a single analog output channel.

	task/channels in is the name of the task or a list of virtual channels to which the operation applies. If you provide a list of virtual channels, NI-DAQmx creates a task automatically.
	data contains a sample to write to the task. The data you write must be in the units of the generation, including any custom scales. Use the DAQmx Create Virtual Channel VI or the DAQ Assistant to specify these units.
	timeout specifies the amount of time in seconds to wait for the VI to write all samples. NI-DAQmx performs a timeout check only if the VI must wait before it writes data. This VI returns an error if the time elapses. The default timeout is 10 seconds. If you set timeout to -1, the VI waits indefinitely. If you set timeout to 0, the VI tries once to write the submitted samples. If the VI could not write all the submitted samples, it returns an error and the number of samples successfully written in the number of samples written per channel output.
	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. If an error occurs while this VI or function runs, the VI or function 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 negative error code. If status is FALSE, code is 0 or a warning code. 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.
	auto start specifies if this VI automatically starts the task if you did not explicitly start it with the DAQmx Start Task VI.
	task out is a reference to the task after this VI or function runs. If you wired a channel or list of channels to task/channels in, NI-DAQmx creates this task automatically.
	number of samples written per channel is the actual number of samples this VI successfully wrote.
	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, error out 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. 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 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.

	task out is a reference to the task after this VI or function runs. If you wired a channel or list of channels to task/channels in, NI-DAQmx creates this task automatically.
	number of samples written per channel is the actual number of samples this VI successfully wrote to each channel in the task.
	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, error out 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. 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 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.

Raw 1D I16 

Writes multiple raw, 16-bit signed integer samples to a task. Use this instance for devices that use 16-bit signed integers as the internal representation of a sample.

	task/channels in is the name of the task or a list of virtual channels to which the operation applies. If you provide a list of virtual channels, NI-DAQmx creates a task automatically.
	data contains a 1D array of raw samples to write to the task.
	timeout specifies the amount of time in seconds to wait for the VI to write all samples. NI-DAQmx performs a timeout check only if the VI must wait before it writes data. This VI returns an error if the time elapses. The default timeout is 10 seconds. If you set timeout to -1, the VI waits indefinitely. If you set timeout to 0, the VI tries once to write the submitted samples. If the VI could not write all the submitted samples, it returns an error and the number of samples successfully written in the number of samples written per channel output.
	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. If an error occurs while this VI or function runs, the VI or function 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 negative error code. If status is FALSE, code is 0 or a warning code. 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.
