Creates an empty advanced sequence.

You must set the source mode to Sequence to use this node. Use this node in the Uncommitted or Committed programming states.

Programming Patterns

Using Advanced Sequence nodes with the Set Sequence node is unsupported.

session in

Instrument session obtained from the Initialize With Channels node.

datatype_icon

sequence name

Name of the sequence to create.

error in

Error conditions that occur before this node runs.

The node responds to this input according to standard error behavior.

Standard Error Behavior

Many nodes provide an error in input and an error out output so that the node can respond to and communicate errors that occur while code is running. The value of error in specifies whether an error occurred before the node runs. Most nodes respond to values of error in in a standard, predictable way.

error in does not contain an error error in contains an error
If no error occurred before the node runs, the node begins execution normally.

If no error occurs while the node runs, it returns no error. If an error does occur while the node runs, it returns that error information as error out.

If an error occurred before the node runs, the node does not execute. Instead, it returns the error in value as error out.

Default: No error

session out

Handle used to identify the session in all subsequent NI-DCPower node calls.

error out

Error information.

The node produces this output according to standard error behavior.

When to Use Advanced Sequencing

Use advanced sequencing instead of Sequence source mode when you want more options for configuring the device in each step of the sequence.

Adding Advanced Sequence Steps

Call the Create Advanced Sequence Step node to add steps to the active advanced sequence.
