niTuner_configReadySignal

Function Prototype

int niTuner_configReadySignal (int taskID, unsigned int signalDestination, unsigned int signalType, unsigned int signalPolarity, double pulseLength);

Purpose

This function configures the PXI-5600 downconverter ready signal output, which is sent on one of the RTSI lines when the downconverter has finished settling to a specified frequency.

Parameters

Name	Type	Description
taskID	int	The Task ID obtained from niTuner_init that identifies the session of a particular device.
signalDestination	unsigned int	Identifies the destination of the ready signal output: Defined Values: NITUNER_SIGNAL_NO_DESTINATION NITUNER_SIGNAL_RTSI0 NITUNER_SIGNAL_RTSI1 NITUNER_SIGNAL_RTSI2 NITUNER_SIGNAL_RTSI3 NITUNER_SIGNAL_RTSI4 NITUNER_SIGNAL_RTSI5 NITUNER_SIGNAL_RTSI6 Default Value: NITUNER_SIGNAL_NO_DESTINATION
signalType	unsigned int	Configures the type of signal the PXI-5600 downconverter generates when it has settled to a frequency. The signal may be represented as a pulse of pulseLength seconds in the direction of the polarity, or as a level signal that returns to the state specified by signalPolarity. For more information about these signal types, see the trigger timing diagram. Defined Values: NITUNER_SIGNAL_PULSE NITUNER_SIGNAL_LEVEL Default Value: NITUNER_SIGNAL_PULSE
signalPolarity	unsigned int	Configures the PXI-5600 downconverter to send a ready signal of selected type with polarity of active low or active high. Defined Values: NITUNER_SIGNAL_ACTIVE_LOW NITUNER_SIGNAL_ACTIVE_HIGH Default Value: NITUNER_SIGNAL_ACTIVE_LOW
pulseLength	double	Time in seconds to generate a signal of type pulse in the direction specified by signalPolarity.
