niFgen Query Arb Waveform Capabilities

Returns the attributes of the signal generator that are related to creating arbitrary waveforms. These attributes are the maximum number of waveforms, waveform quantum, minimum waveform size, and maximum waveform size.

Instrument Handle identifies your instrument session. Instrument Handle was obtained from the niFgen Initialize VI or niFgen Initialize With Options VI.
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.
Minimum Waveform Size returns the minimum number of points that the signal generator allows in a waveform. For some signal generators, you may need to supply a larger waveform than the value specified by this parameter. Refer to the NI Signal Generators Help for a table of minimum waveform sizes.
Maximum Waveform Size returns the maximum number of points that the signal generator allows in a waveform. On some signal generators this may vary with remaining onboard memory.
Waveform Quantum returns the size (number of points) of each waveform must be a multiple of a constant quantum value. This parameter obtains the quantum value that the signal generator uses. For example, if this output returns a value of 8, all waveform sizes must be a multiple of 8.
Maximum Number of Waveforms returns the maximum number of arbitrary waveforms that the signal generator allows. On some signal generators this may vary with remaining onboard memory.
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.
