Send Software Trigger
Sends a software trigger to the switch module specified in the NI-SWITCH session.
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

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
When the trigger input parameter is set to Software Trigger Function using the niSwitch Configure Scan Trigger or the Trigger Input property, the scan does not proceed from a semicolon (wait for trigger) until this node is called.
