Inputs/Outputs

  • cstr.png 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.

  • cgenclassrntag.png Instrument Handle In

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

  • cdbl.png 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.

  • cerrcodeclst.png error in (no error)

    error in describes error conditions that occur before this node runs. This input provides standard error in functionality.

  • idbl.png Stop Frequency (Hz)

    Stop Frequency returns the stop frequency, in Hz, of the OBW.

  • idbl.png Start Frequency (Hz)

    Start Frequency returns the start frequency, in Hz, of the OBW. The OBW is calculated using the following formula: OBW = stop frequency - start frequency

  • igenclassrntag.png Instrument Handle Out

    Instrument Handle Out passes a reference of your RFmx session to the next VI.

  • idbl.png Occupied Bandwidth (Hz)

    Occupied Bandwidth returns the occupied bandwidth, in Hz.

  • idbl.png Average Power (dBm or dBm/Hz)

    Average Power returns the total integrated power of the averaged spectrum acquired by the OBW measurement when you set the OBW Power Units property to dBm. This VI returns the power spectral density when you set the OBW Power Units property to dBm/Hz.

  • idbl.png Frequency Resolution (Hz)

    Frequency Resolution returns the frequency bin spacing, in Hz, of the spectrum acquired by the measurement.

  • ierrcodeclst.png error out

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