Set Continuous Scan

Sets the switch to loop continuously through the scan list or to stop scanning after one pass through the scan list.

Inputs/Outputs

datatype_icon

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.

datatype_icon

error in

Error conditions that occur before this node runs.

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

Standard Error Behavior

Default value: No error

datatype_icon

continuous scan

Boolean value that specifies whether the scan list is run once or continuously during scanning.

TRUE Indicates that the scan list is run continuously during scanning.
FALSE Indicates that the scan list is run once during scanning.
datatype_icon

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.

datatype_icon

error out

Error information.

The node produces this output according to standard error behavior.

Standard Error Behavior

Programming Patterns

Call the niSwitch Abort Scan node to halt a continuous scan.
