ViReal64 R/W niRFSA_ConfigureIQRate

Description

Specifies the IQ rate for the acquisition. The value is expressed in S/s.

Note Notes  Bandwidth is equal to the coerced IQ rate times 0.8.

You should not need to configure an IQ rate higher than 25 MHz, since the NI PXI-5600 downconverter bandwidth is 20 MHz. If you choose to configure a higher IQ rate, you may see aliasing effects at negative frequencies because the IF frequency of the downconverter is at 15 MHz.
