DCPowerMeasurementMeasure Method
Returns a DCPowerMeasureResult struct that contains arrays of measured voltage and current.
Namespace: NationalInstruments.ModularInstruments.NIDCPower
Assembly: NationalInstruments.ModularInstruments.NIDCPower.Fx45 (in NationalInstruments.ModularInstruments.NIDCPower.Fx45.dll) Version: 2023
Syntax
public DCPowerMeasureResult Measure( string channelString )
Public Function Measure ( channelString As String ) As DCPowerMeasureResult
Parameters
- channelString
- Type: SystemString
Specifies the channels to measure. 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. If you do not provide channel(s), all channels in the session are used.
Return Value
Type: DCPowerMeasureResultReturns a DCPowerMeasureResult struct that contains arrays of current measurements and voltage measurements.
 Note |
|---|
| The measurements in the arrays are returned in the same order as the channels specified in the channel string on which the measurement is done. |
Exceptions
| Exception | Condition |
|---|---|
| ObjectDisposedException | The Measure(String) method was accessed after the associated NIDCPower object was disposed. |
Remarks
Each call to this method blocks other method calls until the measurements are returned from the
device. The order of the measurements returned in the array corresponds to the order on the specified
channel(s). The measurement speed of the device and the SamplesToAverage property
dictates the length of time that a measurement takes.
