Configure Scan List
Configures the scan list and scan mode used for scanning.
The scan list is comprised of a list of channel connections separated by semicolons. For example, the following scan list will scan the first three channels of a multiplexer:
com0>ch0; com0>ch1; com0>ch2;
Inputs/Outputs
session in
Control that identifies a particular NI-SWITCH session established with the niSwitch Initialize With Topology node, the niSwitch Initialize With Options node, or the niSwitch Initialize node.
error in
Error conditions that occur before this node runs.
The node responds to this input according to standard error behavior.
Default value: No error
scan list
Scan list to use.
scan mode
Control that specifies how the switch module breaks existing connections when scanning.
Default value: Break Before Make
session out
Indicator that identifies a particular NI-SWITCH session established with the niSwitch Initialize With Topology node, the niSwitch Initialize With Options node, or the niSwitch Initialize node and used for all subsequent NI-SWITCH calls.
error out
Error information.
The node produces this output according to standard error behavior.
Programming Patterns
To see the status of the scan, call either the niSwitch Switch Is Scanning node or the niSwitch Wait For Scan To Complete node. Use the niSwitch Configure Scan Trigger node to configure the scan trigger, and the niSwitch Initiate Scan node to start the scan.
