Create Advanced Sequence Step With Channels

Creates a new advanced sequence step in the active advanced sequence.

When you create an advanced sequence step, each property you passed to the Create Advanced Sequence node is reset to its default value for the new step. To configure the step, you must first designate the new step as the active step using the Active Advanced Sequence Step property or the set as active step input of this node. Once the step is active, use the niDCPower Property Node to configure new values for the step.

Inputs/Outputs

datatype_icon

session in

Instrument session obtained from the Initialize With Independent Channels node.

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

Default value: No error

datatype_icon

channel name

Channel(s) to use.

If you do not wire this parameter, by default all channels in the session are used.

Channel Name Syntax

Specify the channel(s) using the form PXI1Slot3/0,PXI1Slot3/2-3,PXI1Slot4/2-3 or PXI1Slot3/0,PXI1Slot3/2:3,PXI1Slot4/2:3, where PXI1Slot3 and PXI1Slot4 are instrument resource names and 0, 2, and 3 are channels.

datatype_icon

set as active step

Boolean value that specifies whether the current step in the active sequence is active.

True The current step in the advanced sequence is active.
False The current step in the advanced sequence is not active.
datatype_icon

session out

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

datatype_icon

error out

Error information.

The node produces this output according to standard error behavior.

Standard Error Behavior

Hardware Support

This node does not support the following hardware:

  • PXI-4110
  • PXIe-4112/4113
  • PXI-4130
  • PXI-4132
  • PXIe-4154

Programming Patterns

You must set the source mode to Sequence to use this node. However, using Advanced Sequence nodes with the Set Sequence node in the same session is unsupported.
