Selector String comprises of the signal name. If you do not specify the signal name, the default signal instance is used. The default value is "" (empty string).

Example:

""

"signal::sig1"

You can use the RFmxDemod Build Signal String VI to build the selector string.

Digital Edge Source specifies the source terminal for the digital-edge trigger. This parameter is used only when you set the Trigger Type property to Digital Edge.

The default value is PFI0.

PFI0 (PFI0)

The trigger is received on PFI 0.

PFI1 (PFI1)

The trigger is received on PFI 1.

PXI_Trig0 (PXI_Trig0)

The trigger is received on PXI trigger line 0.

PXI_Trig1 (PXI_Trig1)

The trigger is received on PXI trigger line 1.

PXI_Trig2 (PXI_Trig2)

The trigger is received on PXI trigger line 2.

PXI_Trig3 (PXI_Trig3)

The trigger is received on PXI trigger line 3.

PXI_Trig4 (PXI_Trig4)

The trigger is received on PXI trigger line 4.

PXI_Trig5 (PXI_Trig5)

The trigger is received on PXI trigger line 5.

PXI_Trig6 (PXI_Trig6)

The trigger is received on PXI trigger line 6.

PXI_Trig7 (PXI_Trig7)

The trigger is received on PXI trigger line 7.

PXI_STAR (PXI_STAR)

The trigger is received on the PXI star trigger line.

PXIe_DStarB (PXIe_DStarB)

The trigger is received on the PXIe DStar B trigger line.

TimerEvent (TimerEvent)

The trigger is received from the Timer Event.

Digital Edge specifies whether the signal analyzer detects a rising or falling edge on the digital-edge trigger signal. The parameter is used only when you set the Trigger Type property to Digital Edge.

The default value is Rising Edge.

Rising Edge (0)

The trigger asserts on the rising edge of the signal.

Falling Edge (1)

The trigger asserts on the falling edge of the signal.

cdbl.gif

Trigger Delay specifies the trigger delay time, in seconds.

cbool.gif

Enable Trigger? specifies whether to enable the trigger. The default value is TRUE.

cstr.gif

Selector String comprises of the signal name. If you do not specify the signal name, the default signal instance is used. The default value is "" (empty string).

Example:

""

"signal::sig1"

You can use the RFmxDemod Build Signal String VI to build the selector string.

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

RFmxDemod Configure IQ Power Edge Trigger

Configures the I/Q power edge trigger.

RFmxDemod Configure IQ Power Edge Trigger

cio.gif

Instrument Handle In specifies the RFmx session refnum. Instrument Handle In is obtained from the RFmxInstr Initialize NIRFSA VI.

cstr.gif

IQ Power Edge Source specifies the channel from which the device monitors the trigger.

The default value is 0.

ci32.gif

IQ Power Edge Slope specifies whether the device asserts the trigger when the signal power is rising or falling. The device asserts the trigger when the signal power exceeds the specified level with the slope you specify. This parameter is used only when you set the Trigger Type property to IQ Power Edge.

The default value is Rising Slope.

Rising Slope (0)

The trigger asserts when the signal power is rising.

Falling Slope (1)

The trigger asserts when the signal power is falling.

cdbl.gif

IQ Power Edge Level specifies the power level at which the device triggers. This value is expressed in dB when you set the IQ Power Edge Level Type parameter to Relative, and this value is expressed in dBm when you set the IQ Power Edge Level Type parameter to Absolute. The device asserts the trigger when the signal exceeds the level specified by the value of this parameter, taking into consideration the specified slope. The default of this property is hardware dependent.

cbool.gif

Enable Trigger? specifies whether to enable the trigger. The default value is TRUE.

cdbl.gif

Trigger Delay specifies the trigger delay time, in seconds.

cstr.gif

Selector String comprises of the signal name. If you do not specify the signal name, the default signal instance is used. The default value is "" (empty string).

Example:

""

"signal::sig1"

You can use the RFmxDemod Build Signal String VI to build the selector string.

ci32.gif

Minimum Quiet Time Mode specifies whether the measurement computes the minimum quiet time used for triggering.

The default value is Manual.

Manual (0)

The minimum quiet time for triggering is the value of the Min Quiet Time parameter.

Auto (1)

The measurement computes the minimum quiet time used for triggering.

cdbl.gif

Minimum Quiet Time specifies the time duration, in seconds, for which the signal must be quiet before the signal analyzer arms the I/Q power-edge trigger.

ci32.gif

IQ Power Edge Level Type specifies the reference for the IQ Power Edge Level parameter. The IQ Power Edge Level Type parameter is used only when you set the Trigger Type property to IQ Power Edge. The default value is Absolute.

Relative (0)

The IQ Power Edge Level property is relative to the value of the Reference Level property.

Absolute (1)

The IQ Power Edge Level property specifies the absolute power.
