Creates the connections between channels specified in connection list. Specify connections with two endpoints only or the explicit path between two endpoints. NI-SWITCH calculates and uses the shortest path between the channels. Refer to Setting Source and Configuration Channels for information about channel usage types. In the event of an error, connecting stops at the point in the list where the error occurred.

Inputs/Outputs

  • civrn.png instrument handle —

    instrument handle identifies a particular NI-SWITCH session established with the niSwitch Initialize With Topology VI, the niSwitch Initialize With Options VI, or the niSwitch Initialize VI.

  • cstr.png connection list —

    connection list specifies a list of connections between channels to make.

  • cerrcodeclst.png error in (no error) —

    error in describes error conditions that occur before this node runs. This input provides standard error in functionality.

  • iivrn.png instrument handle out —

    instrument handle out identifies a particular NI-SWITCH session established with the niSwitch Initialize With Topology VI, the niSwitch Initialize With Options VI, or the niSwitch Initialize VI and used for all subsequent NI-SWITCH calls.

  • ierrcodeclst.png error out —

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