niScope Configure Vertical

NI-SCOPE LabVIEW

niScope Configure Vertical

Configures the most commonly configured properties of the digitizer vertical subsystem, such as the range, offset, coupling, probe attenuation, and the channel name.

Note  Some features are not supported by all digitizers. Refer to Features Supported by Device for more information.

vertical coupling specifies how to couple the input signal. When input coupling changes, the input stage takes a finite amount of time to settle.
probe attenuation specifies the probe attenuation for the input channel.

Default Value: 1

instrument handle identifies a particular instrument session.
channel name is the channel to configure. For more information, refer to Channel String Syntax.
vertical range specifies the absolute value of the input range for a channel.

For example, to acquire a sine wave that spans between –5 and +5 V, set the vertical range to 10.0 V.

vertical offset specifies the location of the center of the range with respect to ground.

For example, to acquire a sine wave that spans between 0.0 and 10.0 V, set this property to 5.0 V.

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.
channel enabled specifies whether the channel is enabled for acquisition.

Default Value: TRUE

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.
