IviFgenBase Attribute

Data Type Access Applies to Coercion High-Level Functions
ViInt32 R/W N/A None niFgen_ConfigureOutputMode

Description

Sets which output mode that the signal generator uses. The value that you specify determines which functions and attributes you can use to configure the waveform that the signal generator produces.

Defined Values

NIFGEN_VAL_OUTPUT_FUNC Standard Function mode— Generates standard function waveforms such as sine, square, triangle, and so on.
NIFGEN_VAL_OUTPUT_FREQ_LIST Frequency List mode—Generates a standard function using a list of frequencies you define.
NIFGEN_VAL_OUTPUT_ARB Arbitrary Waveform mode—Generates waveforms from user-created/provided waveform arrays of numeric data.
NIFGEN_VAL_OUTPUT_SEQ Arbitrary Sequence mode —Generates downloaded waveforms in an order your specify.
NIFGEN_VAL_OUTPUT_SCRIPT Script mode—Allows you to use scripting to link and loop multiple waveforms in complex combinations.
