niRFSG Reset Device

NI-RFSG LabVIEW

niRFSG Reset Device

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 properties are reset to their default states.

Supported Devices: NI 5610 (upconverter only mode), NI 5650/5651/5652/5670/5671/5672

instrument handle identifies your instrument session. instrument handle is obtained from either the niRFSG Initialize VI or the niRFSG Initialize With Options VI.

error in accepts error information from previously called VIs. The pop-up option Explain Error (or Explain Warning) gives more information about the error displayed.

status is either TRUE (X) for an error, or FALSE (?) for no error or warning. The pop-up option Explain Error (or Explain Warning) gives more information about the error displayed.

code identifies the error or warning. The pop-up option Explain Error (or Explain Warning) gives more information about the error displayed.

source describes the origin of the error or warning. The pop-up option Explain Error (or Explain Warning) gives more information about the error displayed.

instrument handle out passes a reference to your instrument session to the next VI. instrument handle out is obtained from the niRFSG Initialize VI or the niRFSG Initialize With Options VI and identifies a particular instrument session.

error out passes error or warning information out of a VI to be used by other VIs. The pop-up option Explain Error (or Explain Warning) gives more information about the error displayed.

status is either TRUE (X) for an error, or FALSE (?) for no error or warning. The pop-up option Explain Error (or Explain Warning) gives more information about the error displayed.

Details

During a reset, routes of signals between this and other devices are released, regardless of which device created the route. For example, a trigger signal exported to a PXI trigger line that is used by another device is no longer exported.

  • NI 5610, NI 5670/5671/5672 -- After calling this VI, 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.
