niSwitch Set Path
Connects two channels by specifying an explicit path in path list. This VI is particularly useful where path repeatability is important, such as in calibrated signal paths. If this is not necessary, use niSwitch Connect Channels.
To obtain the exact path for a given connection, use niSwitch Get Path.

instrument handle identifies a particular NI-SWITCH session established with niSwitch Initialize With Topology, niSwitch Initialize With Options, or niSwitch Initialize. | ||||||

path list—A string composed of comma-separated paths between channel 1 and channel 2. The first and last names in the path are the path endpoints. All other channels in the path are configuration channels. Example of a valid path list string: ch0->com0, com0->ab0. In this example, com0 is a configuration channel. Obtain the path list for a previously created path with niSwitch Get Path. |

error in describes error conditions that occur before this VI or function runs.
The default is no error. If an error occurred before this VI or function runs, the VI or function passes the error in value to error out. This VI or function runs normally only if no error occurs before this VI or function runs. If an error occurs while this VI or function runs, it runs normally and sets its own error status in error out. Use the Simple Error Handler or General Error Handler VIs to display the description of the error code. Use error in and error out to check errors and to specify execution order by wiring error out from one node to error in of the next node.

instrument handle out identifies a particular NI-SWITCH session established with niSwitch Initialize With Topology, niSwitch Initialize With Options, or niSwitch Initialize and used for all subsequent NI-SWITCH calls. | ||||||
 |
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.
Right-click the error out indicator on the front panel and select Explain Error from the shortcut menu for more information about the error.
