Use the VIs on the NI-SWITCH subpalette to access NI-SWITCH sessions.

Palette Object Description
niSE Get NI-SWITCH Session VI

Retrieves an NI-SWITCH instrument session for an NI-SWITCH switching device that is being managed by NI Switch Executive. The retrieved session handle can be used to access instrument specific functionality through the instrument driver.

Note  Use caution when using the session handle. Calling functions on an instrument driver can invalidate the NI Switch Executive configuration and cache. You should not use the retrieved session handle to make or break connections or modify the configuration channels, as doing so can cause undefined, and potentially unwanted, behavior.

When you finish using the NI-SWITCH device session, call the niSE Release NI-SWITCH Session VI.

niSE Release NI-SWITCH Session VI

Releases an NI-SWITCH instrument session retrieved by a previous call to the niSE Get NI-SWITCH Session VI.
