	status is TRUE (X) if an error occurred before this VI or function ran or FALSE (checkmark) to indicate a warning or that no error occurred before this VI or function ran. The default is FALSE.
	code is the error or warning code. The default is 0. If status is TRUE, code is a negative error code. If status is FALSE, code is 0 or a warning code.

channel list specifies which channels are configured for pattern matching using the pattern array value.

pattern specifies the binary pattern that activates the pattern match trigger under the conditions specified in trigger when.

error in (no error) describes error conditions that occur before this node runs. This input provides standard error in functionality.

	status is TRUE (X) if an error occurred before this VI or function ran or FALSE (checkmark) to indicate a warning or that no error occurred before this VI or function ran. The default is FALSE.
	code is the error or warning code. The default is 0. If status is TRUE, code is a negative error code. If status is FALSE, code is 0 or a warning code.
	source identifies where an error occurred. The source string includes the name of the VI that produced the error, what inputs are in error, and how to eliminate the error.

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

	status is TRUE (X) if an error occurred or FALSE (checkmark) to indicate a warning or that no error occurred.
	code is the error or warning code. If status is TRUE, code is a nonzero error code. If status is FALSE, code is 0 or a warning code.
	source identifies where and why an error occurred. The source string includes the name of the VI that produced the error, what inputs are in error, and how to eliminate the error.

Disable Stop Trigger

This instance of niHSDIO Configure Trigger configures the instrument to not wait for a Stop trigger after the niHSDIO Initiate VI is used. This VI is necessary only if you have configured a Stop trigger and now want to disable it. This VI is valid only for generation sessions.

niHSDIO Disable Stop Trigger

instrument handle identifies your instrument session. instrument handle is obtained from the niHSDIO Init Generation Session VI.
