Description

This attribute indicates the Driver Setup string that the user specified when initializing the driver.

Some cases exist where the end-user must specify instrument driver options at initialization time. An example of this is specifying a particular instrument model from among a family of instruments that the driver supports. This is useful when using simulation. The end-user can specify driver-specific options through the DriverSetup keyword in the optionString parameter to the niSwitch_InitWithOptions function, or through the IVI Configuration Utility.

If the user does not specify a Driver Setup string, this attribute returns an empty string.
