Description

VI_ATTR_TMO_VALUE specifies the minimum timeout value to use (in milliseconds) when accessing the device associated with the given session. A timeout value of VI_TMO_IMMEDIATE means that operations should never wait for the device to respond. A timeout value of VI_TMO_INFINITE disables the timeout mechanism.

Notice that the actual timeout value used by the driver may be higher than the requested one. The actual timeout value is returned when this attribute is retrieved via viGetAttribute().
