Low Level References (myRIO Toolkit and roboRIO Toolkit)

The low level references are clusters of data that the Low Level VIs use to store and pass configuration data. You must use one of the Open VIs to open a reference to a channel before you use the channel.

Note  Do not manually modify the low level references.
