Initializes an EEPROM-specific external alignment step. You must call the niRFSA Close External Alignment Step VI after you call this VI to complete the external alignment.

Supported Devices: PXIe-5605 (PXIe-5665 only), PXIe-5606 (PXIe-5668 only)

Inputs/Outputs

  • civrn.png instrument handle —

    instrument handle identifies your external alignment session. instrument handle is obtained from the niRFSA Initialize External Alignment VI.

  • ci64.png external alignment step —

    external alignment step specifies which external alignment step you want to initialize.

    Preselector Alignment Initiates preselector alignment. This step generates coefficients to align the preselector across the frequency range of 3.6 GHz to 14 GHz for the PXIe-5605, and the frequency range of 3.6 GHz to 26.5 GHz for the PXIe-5606.
  • cerrcodeclst.png error in —

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

  • iivrn.png instrument handle out —

    instrument handle out passes a reference to your instrument session to the next VI. instrument handle is obtained from the niRFSA Initialize External Alignment VI.

  • ierrcodeclst.png error out —

    error out contains error information. So if an error was contained in error in and this VI also produces an error, error out contains the same information as error in. For all other cases, this output provides standard error out functionality.
