Action

Use Action nodes to program dynamic and static acquisition operations.

Use the NI-HSDIO nodes to create a high-speed digital I/O application for your NI digital waveform generator/analyzer.
Commits any pending attributes to hardware and starts the dynamic operation.
Pauses execution of your program until the dynamic data operation is completed or the node returns a timeout error.
Stops a running dynamic session.
Transfers waveform data from PC memory to onboard memory. If you specify a waveform name not already being used on the instrument, the appropriate amount of onboard memory is allocated (if available) and the data is stored in that new location.
Initiates a waveform acquisition on channels enabled for dynamic acquisition, waits to acquire the number of samples specified in samples to read, and returns the acquired data.
Immediately reads all PFI channels configured for static acquisition. The least significant bit of read data corresponds to the lowest physical PFI channel number.
Transfers acquired waveform data from device memory to PC memory. This data was previously written to onboard memory by the hardware after the hardware was initiated. If the number of samples specified in samples to read is not available after the time duration specified in max time milliseconds, this returns no data with a timeout error. The fetch position can be modified by selecting the appropriate Fetch Relative To and Fetch Offset properties in the . The default Fetch Relative To value is Current Read Position. The default Fetch Offset value is 0. The Fetch Waveform is not necessary if you use the , as the fetch is performed as part of that function.
Returns the sample error information from a hardware comparison operation.
Use the Software-Timed PMU nodes to measure and source voltages and currents in your system.
Use the Static nodes to program static acquisition operations.
