niDCPower_CalAdjustCurrentLimit
ViStatus niDCPower_CalAdjustCurrentLimit (ViSession vi, ViConstString channelName, ViReal64 range, ViUInt32 numberOfMeasurements, ViReal64 requestedOutputs[], ViReal64 measuredOutputs[]);
Purpose
Calculates the calibration constants for the current limit for the specified output channel and range. This function compares the array in requestedOutputs to the array in measuredOutputs and calculates the calibration constants for the current limit returned by the device. Refer to the calibration procedure for the power supply you are calibrating for detailed instructions on the appropriate use of this function. This function can only be called from an external calibration session.
Parameters
Input | ||
Name | Type | Description |
vi | ViSession | Identifies a particular instrument session. vi is obtained from the niDCPower_init or niDCPower_InitWithOptions function. |
channelName | ViConstString | Specifies the channel name to which these calibration settings apply. |
range | ViReal64 | Specifies the range to calibrate with these settings. Only one channel at a time may be calibrated. |
numberOfMeasurements | ViUInt32 | Specifies the number of elements in requestedOutputs and measuredOutputs. |
requestedOutputs | ViReal64[] | Specifies an array of the output values that were requested in the niDCPower_ConfigureCurrentLimit function. |
measuredOutputs | ViReal64[] | Specifies an array of the output values measured by an external precision digital multimeter. |
Return Value
Name | Type | Description |
Status | ViStatus | Reports the status of this operation. To obtain a text description of the status code, call the niDCPower_error_message function. To obtain additional information concerning the error condition, call the niDCPower_GetError function. |
