niDCPower Initialize External Calibration

If password is valid, this VI creates a new IVI instrument driver session to the power supply specified in resource name and returns an instrument handle you use to identify the power supply in all subsequent NI-DCPower VI calls. This VI also sends initialization commands to set the power supply to the state necessary for the operation of NI-DCPower. Opening a calibration session always performs a reset. Refer to the calibration procedure for the power supply you are calibrating for detailed instructions on the appropriate use of this VI.

cio.gif resource name specifies the resource name assigned by Measurement & Automation Explorer (MAX), for example PXI1Slot3, where PXI1Slot3 is an instrument resource name. resource name can also be a logical IVI name.
cstr.gif password specifies the password for opening a calibration session. password can be a maximum of four alphanumeric characters. The initial password is factory configured to "NI".
ccclst.gif error in (no error) describes error conditions that occur before this VI runs.
cbool.gif status is TRUE (X) if an error occurred before this VI ran or FALSE (checkmark) to indicate a warning or that no error occurred before this VI 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 describes the origin of the error or warning and is, in most cases, the name of the VI that produced the error or warning. The default is an empty string.
iio.gif instrument handle out returns a handle that you use to identify the session in all subsequent NI-DCPower VI calls.
icclst.gif error out contains error information. If error in indicates that an error occurred before this VI ran, error out contains the same error information. Otherwise, it describes the error status that this VI produces.
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 the error or warning code. If status is TRUE, code is a non-zero error code. If status is FALSE, code is 0 or a warning code.
istr.gif source describes the origin of the error or warning and is, in most cases, the name of the VI that produced the error or warning.
