niSync Initialize External Calibration (VI)
Installed With: NI-SyncBegins an external calibration session for the specified device. The VI returns an instrument driver session handle that you can use to adjust calibration constants for the module or read current calibration constants stored in the device's non-volatile memory. You must close the external calibration session using niSync Close External Calibration.

Note You must supply the external calibration password of the module for the operation to succeed. Refer to your device's calibration documentation for the default external calibration password. |
niSync Initialize External Calibration (String)
Use this instance to manually enter a resource name for an external calibration session using a string constant.

resource name specifies the resource name of the device you would like to initialize. You can assign the resource name of a device in Measurement & Automation Explorer (MAX). To display a list of compatible resource names, wire a control or constant to this terminal. Syntax PXI[bus number]::device number VISA aliases are also valid for the resource name. Examples
