Fetches the compression points.

Inputs/Outputs
Selector String
—
Selector String specifies a selector string comprising of the signal name and result name. If you do not specify the signal name, the default signal instance is used. If you do not specify the result name, the default result instance is used. The default value is "" (empty string). Example: "" "signal::sig1" "result::r1" "signal::sig1/result::r1" You can use the RFmxSpecAn Build Signal String VI to build the selector string.
Instrument Handle In
—
Instrument Handle In specifies the RFmx session refnum. Instrument Handle In is obtained from the RFmxInstr Initialize NIRFSA VI.
Timeout (s)
—
Timeout specifies the timeout, in seconds, for fetching the specified measurement. Set this value to an appropriate time, longer than expected for fetching the measurement. A value of -1 specifies that the VI waits until the measurement is complete. The default value is 10.
error in (no error)
—
error in describes error conditions that occur before this node runs. This input provides standard error in functionality.
Instrument Handle Out
—
Instrument Handle Out passes a reference of your RFmx session to the next VI.
Input Compression Point (dBm)
—
Input Compression Point returns the theoretical input power at which the device gain drops by the compression level, specified by the AMPM Compression Point Level parameter, from its mean linear gain. This value is expressed in dBm.
Output Compression Point (dBm)
—
Output Compression Point returns the theoretical output power at which device gain drops by the compression level, specified by the AMPM Compression Point Level parameter, from its mean linear gain. This value is expressed in dBm.
error out
—
error out contains error information. This output provides standard error out functionality. |
