Functions, VIs, Properties, and Attributes

You program your device primarily with the functions (or VIs in LabVIEW) that make up the NI-DAQmx API. The functions contain the core functionality of the API, but for advanced or uncommon functionality, you can use the following:

• Properties for LabVIEW, Visual C++, Visual Basic .NET, and Visual C#
• Get and Set Attribute functions for ANSI C and LabWindows/CVI

Refer to your function or VI reference help for detailed information on available attributes and properties.
