Description

Specifies how the DMM acquires data.

When you call niDMM_ConfigureMeasurementDigits, NI-DMM sets this attribute to NIDMM_VAL_IVIDMM_MODE. When you call niDMM_ConfigureWaveformAcquisition, NI-DMM sets this attribute to NIDMM_VAL_WAVEFORM_MODE. If you are programming attributes directly, you must set this attribute before setting other configuration attributes.

Defined Values

NIDMM_VAL_IVIDMM_MODESingle or multipoint measurements—when the NIDMM_ATTR_TRIGGER_COUNT and NIDMM_ATTR_SAMPLE_COUNT attributes are both set to 1, the NI 4065 and NI 4070/4071/4072 take a single-point measurement; otherwise, NI-DMM takes multipoint measurements.
NIDMM_VAL_WAVEFORM_MODEWaveform Mode configures the NI 4070/4071/4072 to take waveform measurements.
