niRFSG_ResetDevice
C Function Prototype
ViStatus niRFSG_ResetDevice (ViSession vi);
Purpose
Performs a hard reset on the device which consists of the following actions:
- Signal generation is stopped
- All routes are released
- External bidirectional terminals are tristated
- FPGAs are reset
- Hardware is configured to its default state
- All session attributes are reset to their default states
During a reset, routes of signals between this and other devices are released, regardless of which device created the route.
- NI 5610, NI 5670/5671/5672 — After calling this function, the device requires 25 seconds before returning to full functionality. NI-RFSG enforces this condition by adding a wait, if needed, the next time you try to access the device.

Note You must call the niRFSG_ResetDevice function if the NI-RFSG device has shut down due to high temperature conditions. |
Supported Devices: NI 5610 (upconverter only mode), NI 5650/5651/5652/5670/5671/5672
