Configure Idle State String
Sets the state of the channels when the dynamic generation operation is idle using a string format
The operation may be idle when the generation operation completes normally, when the generation operation pauses from an active Pause trigger, or when the generation operation terminates because of an underflow error.
Inputs/Outputs

session in
Instrument session obtained from the Initialize Acquisition Sessionnode, the Initialize Generation Sessionnode, or the Initialize External Calibrationnode.

idle state
The idle state of a dynamic generation operation.
This expression is composed of characters:
- X or x—Retains the previous value.
- 1—Sets the channel to logic high.
- 0—Sets the channel to logic low.
- Z or z—Disables the channel (sets it to a high-impedance state).
The first character in idle state corresponds to the first channel in channel list. The number of characters in pattern must equal the number of channels specified in channel list, or the node returns an error. For example, if you are trying to make three channels tristate, the idle state control needs to be "ZZZ" without any commas or spaces.

channel list
The channels being configured.

error in
Error conditions that occur before this node runs.
The node responds to this input according to standard error behavior.
Default value: No error

session out
Handle that identifies the session in all subsequent node calls.
The session out parameter is obtained from the Initialize Acquisition Sessionnode or the Initialize Generation Sessionnode.

error out
Error information.
The node produces this output according to standard error behavior.
