Output Mode

LabView FGEN

Output Attributes:Output Mode

Short Name: Output Mode

Sets which output mode the signal generator will use. The value you specify determines which VIs and properties you use to configure the waveform the signal generator produces.

Default Value: NIFGEN_VAL_OUTPUT_FUNC

Defined Values:

NIFGEN_VAL_OUTPUT_FUNCStandard Function
NIFGEN_VAL_OUTPUT_FREQ_LISTFrequency List
NIFGEN_VAL_OUTPUT_ARBArbitrary Waveform
NIFGEN_VAL_OUTPUT_SEQArbitrary Sequence
NIFGEN_VAL_OUTPUT_SCRIPTScript

Standard Function

When you set Output Mode to Standard Function (NIFGEN_VAL_OUTPUT_FUNC), you can use the following VIs to configure the waveform:

You can also set the following properties:

Frequency List

When you set Output Mode to Frequency List (NIFGEN_VAL_OUTPUT_FREQ_LIST), you can use the following VIs to configure the waveform:

You can also set the following properties:

Arbitrary Waveform

When you set Output Mode to Arbitrary Waveform (NIFGEN_VAL_OUTPUT_ARB), you can use the following VIs to configure the waveform:

You can also set the following properties:

Arbitrary Sequence

When you set Output Mode to Arbitrary Sequence (NIFGEN_VAL_OUTPUT_SEQ), you can use the following VIs to configure the sequence:

You can also set the following properties:

Script

When you set Output Mode to Script (NIFGEN_VAL_OUTPUT_SCRIPT), you can use the following VIs to configure the script:

You can also set the following property:

Note  You cannot change this property while the device is generating a waveform. If you want to change the device configuration, call the niFgen Abort Generation VI or wait for the generation to complete.
