For the NI 5102, this node externally calibrates a specified channel and vertical range.

Note  

Use this node only when following the NI 5102 Calibration Procedure.

Call this node before calling Adjust Range Calibration to perform a preliminary offset calibration. The first time this node is called, a default vertical range parameter is used in the driver to calibrate the vertical offset. When this node is called again after Adjust Range Calibration, it performs a precise offset calibration using the calibrated vertical range.

datatype_icon

session in

The instrument handle that you obtain from Initialize External Calibration. The handle identifies a particular instrument session.

datatype_icon

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

datatype_icon

channels

The channel to calibrate.

Channel String Syntax

This input parameter has the following options:

  • A single channel, such as 0.
  • A list of channels, such as 0,1 or 3,2,1,0
  • A range of channels, such as 0-7 or 0:7.
  • All channels, which is designated by an empty string.

Note  

The order of channels in a list is important. The attributes are set on the channels in the order they occur in the string.

datatype_icon

range

The vertical range, in volts, to calibrate.

datatype_icon

session out

Reference to the NI-SCOPE instrument session to pass to the next node in the program.

datatype_icon

error out

Error information.

The node produces this output according to standard error behavior.

Where This Node Can Run:

Desktop OS: Windows

FPGA: Not supported

Web Server: Not supported in VIs that run in a web application
