niFgen_ConfigureClockMode
ViStatus niFgen_ConfigureClockMode (ViSession vi, ViInt32 clockMode);
Purpose
Selects the clock mode for the signal generator.
For signal generators that support it, this function allows you to switch the sample clock to High-Resolution Sampling mode.
When in Divide-Down Sampling mode, you can only set the sample rate to certain frequencies, based on dividing down the update clock. However, in High-Resolution Sampling mode, you can set the sample rate to any value.
 |
Note The signal generator must not be in the Generating state when you call this function. |
|
Note You must call the niFgen_ConfigureOutputMode function to set the output mode to NIFGEN_VAL_OUTPUT_SEQ, NIFGEN_VAL_OUTPUT_ARB, or NIFGEN_VAL_OUTPUT_SCRIPT before calling this function. |
Parameters
| Input | ||||||||
| Name | Type | Description | ||||||
| vi | ViSession | Identifies your instrument session. vi is obtained from the niFgen_init or the niFgen_InitWithOptions functions and identifies a particular instrument session. | ||||||
| clockMode | ViInt32 | Sets the clock mode of the signal generator.

| Status | ViStatus | Returns the status code of this operation. The status code either indicates success or describes an error or warning condition. You can examine the status code from each call to an NI-FGEN function to determine if an error occurred.
To obtain a text description of the status code, call the niFgen_error_message function. To obtain additional information about the error condition, call the niFgen_GetError function. To clear the error information from NI-FGEN, call the niFgen_ClearError function. The general meaning of the status code is as follows:
