NIDCPOWER_ATTR_VOLTAGE_LIMIT_RANGE
Specific Attribute
| Data type |
Access | Applies to | Coercion | High-Level Functions |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| ViReal64 | R/W | Channel | Yes | niDCPower_ConfigureVoltageLimitRange |
Description
Specifies the voltage limit range, in volts, for the specified channel(s). The range defines the valid values to which the voltage limit can be set. Use the NIDCPOWER_ATTR_VOLTAGE_LIMIT_AUTORANGE attribute to enable automatic selection of the voltage limit range.
The NIDCPOWER_ATTR_VOLTAGE_LIMIT_RANGE attribute is applicable only if the channel is set to NIDCPOWER_VAL_DC_CURRENT in the NIDCPOWER_ATTR_OUTPUT_FUNCTION attribute.
The channel must be enabled for the specified voltage limit range to take effect. Refer to the NIDCPOWER_ATTR_OUTPUT_ENABLED attribute for more information about enabling the output channel.
Valid Values:
NI PXI-4110
| Channel | Voltage Limit Range (V) | Voltage Limit (V) |
|---|---|---|
| 0 | 6 | 0 to +6 |
| 1, 2 | 20 | 0 to +20 |
NI PXI-4130
| Channel | Voltage Limit Range (V) | Voltage Limit (V) |
|---|---|---|
| 0 | 6 | 0 to +6 |
| 1 | 6 | 0 to +6 |
| 20 | 0 to +20 |
 |
Note If a range other than what is listed in the preceding table is selected, it will be coerced to the next-highest range. For example, requesting the 10 V voltage limit range on Channel 1 on the NI-PXI 4130 coerces the voltage limit range to 20 V. Refer to the Ranges topic in the NI DC Power Supplies and SMUs Help for more information about coercion. |
