niRFSA_PerformThermalCorrection

NI RF Vector Signal Analyzers

niRFSA_PerformThermalCorrection

ViStatus = niRFSA_PerformThermalCorrection( ViSession vi);

Purpose

Measurements are affected by changes in temperature. NI-RFSA internally acquires the temperature every time you initiate an acquisition. If you are performing a very long continuous acquisition, National Instruments recommends calling this function once every 10 minutes in a stable temperature environment to periodically update temperature calibration.

Parameters

Input
Name Type Description
vi ViSession Identifies your instrument session. vi is obtained from the niRFSA_init or the niRFSA_initWithOptions functions and identifies a particular instrument session.

Return Value

Name Type Description
status ViStatus Returns the status code of this operation. The status code either indicates success or describes an error or warning condition. You examine the status code from each call to an instrument driver function to determine if an error occurred.

To obtain a text description of the status code, call the niRFSA_error_message function. To obtain additional information about the error condition, call the niRFSA_GetError function. To clear the error information from the driver, call the niRFSA_ClearError function.

The general meaning of the status code is as follows:
