niRFSG Configure RF VI
Configures the frequency and power level of the RF output signal. The PXI-5670/5671, PXIe-5672, and PXIe-5860 device must be in the Configuration state before you call this VI. The PXIe-5644/5645/5646, PXI/PXIe-5650/5651/5652, PXIe-5654/5654 with PXIe-5696, PXIe-5673/5673E, and PXIe-5830/5831/5832/5840/5841/5842 device can be in the Configuration state or Generation state when you call this VI.
Supported Devices: PXIe-5644/5645/5646, PXI/PXIe-5650/5651/5652, PXIe-5654/5654 with PXIe-5696, PXI-5670/5671, PXIe-5672/5673/5673E, PXIe-5830/5831/5832/5840/5841/5842/5860

 |
instrument handle identifies your instrument session. instrument handle is obtained from either the niRFSG Initialize VI or the niRFSG Initialize With Options VI. |
 |
frequency specifies the frequency of the generated RF signal. For arbitrary waveform generation, frequency specifies the center frequency of the signal. This value is expressed in hertz. |
|
power level specifies the power level of the generated RF signal. By default, this parameter specifies the average power of the signal. To configure the power level of a waveform with varying power, set the Power Level Type property to Peak Power. This value is expressed in dBm. |
 |
error in describes error conditions that occur before this node runs. This input provides standard error in functionality. |
 |
instrument handle out passes a reference to your instrument session to the next VI. instrument handle out is obtained from the niRFSG Initialize VI or the niRFSG Initialize With Options VI. |
 |
error out contains error information. This output provides standard error out functionality. |
