Fetches a cluster of complex, double-precision floating-point data from the specified channel. Modulation Toolkit VIs use the complex, double-precision floating-point cluster data type. Use this VI in applications that use Modulation Toolkit VIs.

Inputs/Outputs

  • cstr.png channel list

    channel list specifies the channel(s) from which to fetch the data.

  • civrn.png session handle

    session handle identifies your instrument session.

    session handle is obtained from the niUSRP Open Rx Session VI and identifies a particular receive (Rx) session.

  • ci64.png number of samples

    number of samples specifies the number of samples to fetch from the acquisition channel. For finite acquisitions, if you specify a value of -1, NI-USRP returns all the remaining samples. NI-USRP returns the samples when the requested number of samples is retrieved from the device or when the timeout is exceeded, whichever happens first.

  • cdbl.png timeout

    timeout specifies the time to wait, in seconds, before returning an error if the requested number of samples have not been acquired.

    A negative value indicates to the driver to wait indefinitely.

  • 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 session handle out

    session handle out passes a reference to your instrument session to the next VI.

    session handle out is obtained from the niUSRP Open Rx Session VI and identifies a particular receive (Rx) session.

  • icclst.png data

    data returns the received baseband samples as complex, double-precision floating-point data in a cluster, which also includes sampling information.

  • idbl.png t0

    t0 specifies the trigger (start) time of the acquired Y array.

  • idbl.png dt

    dt specifies the time between values in the Y array.

  • i1dcdb.png Y

    Y specifies the complex-valued baseband waveform. The real and imaginary parts of this complex data array correspond to the in-phase (I) and quadrature-phase (Q) data, respectively.

  • inclst.png timestamp

    timestamp returns the timestamp of the first receive (Rx) sample returned and indicates the time associated with the first sample of the waveform, according to the onboard device timer.

    timestamp is the time of the clock in seconds, interpreted as whole seconds.fractional seconds.

  • iu64.png whole seconds

    whole seconds is the integer number of seconds for the time associated with the first sample of the waveform, according to the onboard device timer.

  • idbl.png fractional seconds

    fractional seconds is the double-precision, floating-point value representing the remaining fraction of a second for the time associated with the first sample of the waveform, according to the onboard device timer.

  • ierrcodeclst.png error out

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