niScope Cal Adjust Offset

NI-SCOPE LabVIEW

niScope Cal Adjust Offset

For the NI 5102, externally calibrates a specified channel and vertical range.

Call this VI before calling niScope Cal Adjust Range to perform a preliminary offset calibration. The first time this VI is called, a default vertical range parameter is used in the driver to calibrate the vertical offset. When niScope Cal Adjust Offset is called again after niScope Cal Adjust Range, it performs a precise offset calibration using the calibrated vertical range.

Note   Use this VI only when following the NI 5102 Calibration Procedure (Start»Programs»National Instruments»NI-SCOPE»Documentation»Calibration).

instrument handle identifies a particular instrument session.
channel name is the channel to calibrate. For more information, refer to Channel String Syntax.
range (V) is the vertical range to calibrate.
error in describes error conditions that occur before this VI runs. The default input of this cluster is no error. If an error already occurred, this VI returns the value of error in in error out. The VI runs normally only if no incoming error exists. Otherwise, the VI passes the error in value to error out. The error in cluster contains the following parameters:
status is TRUE (X) if an error occurred before this VI or function ran or FALSE (checkmark) to indicate a warning or that no error occurred before this VI or function ran. The default is FALSE.
code is the error or warning code. The default is 0. If status is TRUE, code is a negative error code. If status is FALSE, code is 0 or a warning code.
source identifies where an error occurred. The source string includes the name of the VI that produced the error, what inputs are in error, and how to eliminate the error.
instrument handle out has the same value as the instrument handle.
error out contains error information. If error in indicates that an error occurred before this VI or function ran, error out contains the same error information. Otherwise, it describes the error status that this VI or function produces.
status is TRUE (X) if an error occurred or FALSE (checkmark) to indicate a warning or that no error occurred.
code is the error or warning code. If status is TRUE, code is a nonzero error code. If status is FALSE, code is 0 or a warning code.
source identifies where and why an error occurred. The source string includes the name of the VI that produced the error, what inputs are in error, and how to eliminate the error.
