NIHSDIO_ATTR_WAVEFORM_TO_GENERATE

Specific Attribute

Description

Use this attribute to specify which named waveform in onboard memory is generated upon calling niHSDIO_Initiate when NIHSDIO_ATTR_GENERATION_MODE is NIHSDIO_VAL_WAVEFORM. If this attribute is not set to a valid waveform name and more than one waveform is in onboard memory, you receive an error when calling niHSDIO_Initiate. If only one waveform is in onboard memory and this attribute is set to empty string, then that waveform is generated upon calling niHSDIO_Initiate.

This attribute is ignored when NIHSDIO_ATTR_GENERATION_MODE is set to NIHSDIO_VAL_SCRIPTED, since NIHSDIO_ATTR_SCRIPT_TO_GENERATE defines the sequence of waveforms to generate.

This attribute is valid only for generation sessions.
