Adjust Sample Clock Relative Delay

Download PDF

Applies offset, in seconds, to the sample clock relative to the reference clock when using the onboard clock.

Each time this node is called, the sample clock is offset from the reference clock by the specified amount of time.

Adjustment range: ±1 Sample Clock Period per call

Inputs/Outputs

Handle that identifies the NI-SCOPE instrument session as previously allocated by Initialize With Options .

Error conditions that occur before this node runs.

The node responds to this input according to standard error behavior.

Default value: No error

The amount of time, in seconds, to delay the sample clock.

This value is relative, so repeated calls to this node delay the sample clock by this amount every time.

Default value: 0.00

Reference to the NI-SCOPE instrument session to pass to the next node in the program.

Error information.

The node produces this output according to standard error behavior.

This node does not support the following hardware:

Use this node when performing manual adjustment to correct for skew and jitter between oscilloscopes synchronized with NI-TClk.

Apply time offset with this node to reduce skew and/or jitter.
Use the NI-SCOPEOscillator Phase DAC Value property to convert this time offset into a value that can apply the manual adjustment across sessions and improve synchronization repeatability.
