Initialize With Options (G Dataflow)

Many nodes provide an error in input and an error out output so that the node can respond to and communicate errors that occur while code is running. The value of error in specifies whether an error occurred before the node runs. Most nodes respond to values of error in in a standard, predictable way.

error in does not contain an error	error in contains an error
If no error occurred before the node runs, the node begins execution normally. If no error occurs while the node runs, it returns no error. If an error does occur while the node runs, it returns that error information as error out.	If an error occurred before the node runs, the node does not execute. Instead, it returns the error in value as error out.

The syntax for option string consists of the following relations:

propertyName=value

where

• propertyName is the name of the property.
• value is the value to which the property is set.

To set multiple properties, separate their assignments with a comma, as shown in the following option string:

"RangeCheck=1, QueryInstrStatus=0, Cache=1, DriverSetup=AWG:pxi1slot4"

1. Use the Driver Setup keyword in the option string to complete the following tasks:
   • Specify your hardware device or external (non-National Instruments) device
   • Simulate hardware that is not present
   • Specify an NI-RFSG instrument driver FPGA extensions bitfile
     

     Note

     Specifying an AE, AWG, or LO module in the Driver Setup string overrides any different existing association configured in MAX.

2. Use the following format when configuring the Driver Setup string: Tag:Value
3. When specifying or simulating multiple devices, separate them with a semicolon, as shown in the following string: DriverSetup=AWG:pxi1slot4; LO:pxi1slot7
