Configuring the Hardware
The Configuration VIs and functions set up the acquisition. NI-DMM can configure single point measurements, multipoint measurements, and waveform acquisitions. The configuration functions depend on the type of acquisition used in an application.
To configure the DMM for a single point acquisition, call niDMM Config Measurement followed by calls to measurement options (such as niDMM Configure Auto Zero Mode, niDMM Configure Power Line Frequency, niDMM Configure Offset Compensated Ohms, etc).
The following table lists VIs and functions for configuring the DMM:
Advanced Attributes and Properties
Some advanced attributes and properties are not available through a configuration function or VI. Set the attributes and properties directly using the niDMM_SetAttributeViReal64 function or a property node. Refer to Using Attributes and Properties with NI-DMM for more information on attribute and property programming. Refer to the following table for a list of those attributes and properties configurable only through the niDMM_SetAttributeViReal64 function or a property node.
