Calculates calibration constants pertaining to the gain and offset of the onboard calibration ADC. During external calibration, you can generate voltages and measure them both externally and with the calibration ADC. The measured voltages are passed to this VI so that NI-FGEN can calculate the appropriate calibration constants and, when the calibration session is committed, store them in the onboard EEPROM.

Inputs/Outputs

  • cstr.png Channel Name —

    Channel Name specifies the channel that this VI uses.

  • ci16.png Configuration —

    Configuration specifies the configuration of the device for this stage of calibration.

    Input Value Configuration Setting
    -1 NIFGEN_VAL_CAL_CONFIG_GLOBAL
    10 NIFGEN_VAL_CAL_CONFIG_DIRECT_PATH
    11 NIFGEN_VAL_CAL_CONFIG_MAIN_PATH
  • civrn.png Instrument Handle —

    Instrument Handle identifies your instrument session. Instrument Handle is obtained from the niFgen Init Ext Cal VI.

  • c1ddbl.png Voltages Measured Externally —

    Voltages Measured Externally is an array of analog output voltages measured with an external instrument.

  • c1ddbl.png Voltages Measured with Cal ADC —

    Voltages Measured with Cal ADC is an array of analog output voltages measured with the onboard calibration ADC.

  • cerrcodeclst.png error in (no error) —

    error in describes error conditions that occur before this node runs. This input provides standard error in functionality.

    Default value: no error

  • iivrn.png Instrument Handle Out —

    Instrument Handle Out passes a reference to your instrument session to the next VI.

  • ierrcodeclst.png error out —

    error out contains error information. This output provides standard error out functionality.
