Inputs/Outputs

  • civrn.png instrument handle —

    instrument handle identifies your instrument session. instrument handle is obtained from either the niRFSG Initialize VI or the niRFSG Initialize With Options VI.

  • cstr.png list name —

    list name specifies the name of the configuration list. This string is case-insensitive and alphanumeric, and it cannot contain spaces or use reserved words.

  • c1du32.png configuration list properties —

    configuration list properties specifies the properties that you intend to change between configuration list steps. Calling the niRFSG Create Configuration List VI allocates space for each of the configuration list properties. When you use the niRFSG Property Node to set one of the configuration list properties, that property is set as one of the configuration list steps. Use the Active Configuration List Step property to specify which configuration list step to configure.

    You can include the following properties in your configuration list based on your device:

    Property PXIe-5644/5646 PXIe-5645 PXIe-5650/5651/5652 PXIe-5653 PXIe-5654 PXIe-5654 with PXIe-5696 PXIe-5673E PXIe-5820 PXIe-5830/5831/5832 PXIe-5840/5841/5842, PXIe-5842 with S-parameters, PXIe-5842 with 54GHz Frequency Extension PXIe-5841 with PXIe-5655 PXIe-5860
