ViInt32 R/W N/A None None

Description

The number of cycles that you want the signal generator to produce after it receives a trigger.

For standard and arbitrary waveforms, a cycle is one period of the waveform.

An arbitrary sequence consists of multiple arbitrary waveforms in a sequence. Each waveform can be repeated a discrete number of times before the next waveform is produced. For arbitrary sequences, a cycle is one complete progression through the generation of all iterations of all waveforms in the sequence.

Note  The NI 5411/5421 arbitrary waveform generators only support continuous generation.
