niScope Configure Horizontal Timing

NI-SCOPE LabVIEW

niScope Configure Horizontal Timing

Configures the common properties of the horizontal subsystem for a multirecord acquisition in terms of minimum sample rate.

enforce realtime indicates whether the digitizer enforces real-time measurements or allows equivalent-time (RIS) measurements.

Not all digitizers support RIS—refer to Features Supported by Device for more information.

Default Value:TRUE

Defined Values

TRUE (Default)—Allow real-time acquisitions only

FALSE—Allow real-time and RIS acquisitions

number of records specifies the number of records to acquire.

Default Value: 1

instrument handle identifies a particular instrument session.
min sample rate specifies the sample rate for the acquisition.

Default Value: 20 MS/s

reference position specifies the position of the Reference Event in the waveform record as a percentage of the record.

Default Value: 50%

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.
min record length passes the minimum number of points you need in the record for each channel.

Call niScope Actual Record Length to obtain the actual record length used. Refer to Coercions of Horizontal Parameters for more information about why the record length may be different than what was specified. The value must be greater than 1 and is limited by available memory.

Default Value: 1000

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.
