niRFSG_ConfigurePowerLevelType
C Function Prototype
ViStatus niRFSG_ConfigurePowerLevelType (ViSession vi, ViInt32 power_level_type);
Purpose
Specifies the way the driver interprets the NIRFSG_ATTR_POWER_LEVEL attribute. In average power mode, NI-RFSG automatically scales waveform data to use the maximum dynamic range. In peak power mode, waveforms are scaled according to the NIRFSG_ATTR_ARB_WAVEFORM_SOFTWARE_SCALING_FACTOR attribute.
Supported Devices: PXIe-5644/5645/5646, PXI-5670/5671, PXIe-5672/5673/5673E, PXIe-5820/5830/5831/5832/5840/5841/5842

Parameters
| Input | ||||||
| Name | Type | Description | ||||
| vi | ViSession | Identifies your instrument session. The ViSession handle is obtained from the niRFSG_init function or the niRFSG_InitWithOptions function and identifies a particular instrument session. | ||||
| power_level_type | ViInt32 | Specifies the way the driver interprets the value of the NIRFSG_ATTR_POWER_LEVEL attribute. NI-RFSG sets the NIRFSG_ATTR_POWER_LEVEL_TYPE attribute to this value.

Return Value
| Name | Type | Description | ||||||||
| status | ViStatus | Returns the status code of this operation. The status code either indicates success or describes an error or warning condition. Examine the status code from each call to an instrument driver function to determine if an error occurred.
To obtain a text description of the error code, call the niRFSG_GetError function. The general meaning of the status code is as follows:
