niFgen Configure Synchronization

Sets the signal generator to receive a synchronization signal to synchronize two or more NI 5401/5411/5431 signal generators. One signal generator should route a SYNC signal to a RTSI line by calling niFgen Export Signal VI ( niFgen Route Signal Out VI for the NI 5404), and other signal generators should receive the signal by calling the niFgen Configure Synchronization VI.

Notes  The signal generator must not be in the Generating state when you call this VI.

Only the NI 5401/5411/5431 signal generators require this VI to be called for proper synchronization.

Instrument Handle identifies your instrument session. Instrument Handle was obtained from the niFgen Initialize VI or niFgen Initialize With Options VI.
Channel Name specifies the channel this VI uses.
Synchronization Source specifies the source of the synchronization signal you want to use.
error in describes error conditions that occur before this VI or function runs.
status is TRUE (X) if an error occurred before this VI or function ran or FALSE (checkmark) to indicate a warning or that no error occurred before this VI or function ran. The default is FALSE.
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.
source identifies where an error occurred. The source string includes the name of the VI that produced the error, what inputs are in error, and how to eliminate the error.
Instrument Handle Out passes a reference to your instrument session to the next VI.
error out contains error information. If error in indicates that an error occurred before this VI or function ran, error out contains the same error information. Otherwise, it describes the error status that this VI or function produces.
status is TRUE (X) if an error occurred or FALSE (checkmark) to indicate a warning or that no error occurred.
code is the error or warning code. If status is TRUE, code is a nonzero error code. If status is FALSE, code is 0 or a warning code.
source identifies where and why an error occurred. The source string includes the name of the VI that produced the error, what inputs are in error, and how to eliminate the error.
