IVI Compliance Package

IviACPwr Configure Waveform VI

IviACPwrBase Capability Group

This VI configures the waveform name used to generate output power on the specified output phase.

IviACPwr Configure Waveform

cio.gif instrument handle The instrument handle that you obtain from the IviACPwr Initialize or IviACPwr Initialize With Options VIs. The handle identifies a particular instrument session.

Default Value: None
cstr.gif Phase Name ("") Specifies the name of the output on which to configure the waveform.

Pass the virtual output phase name that you assign to the instrument in the IVI Configuration utility.

Virtual output phase names are aliases for instrument-specific output phase strings, which can differ from one instrument to another. With virtual output phase names, you can use and swap instruments without having to change the output phase names in your source code. Assign a virtual output phase name to an instrument-specific output phase through the IVI Configuration utility. This control accepts virtual output phase names you have assigned to the specific instrument you are using and also accepts the instrument-specific output phase names.

Default Value: "" Note: You can specify the output phase name as a string variable or as a literal enclosed in double quotes.
cstr.gif Waveform Name ("") Specifies name of the waveform used to generate output power on the specified phase. The driver uses this value to set the IviACPwr Waveform property.

Default Value: ""
cerrcodeclst.gif error in (no error) The error in cluster can accept error information wired from VIs previously called. Use this information to decide if any functionality should be bypassed in the event of errors from other VIs.

The pop-up option Explain Error (or Explain Warning) gives more information about the error displayed.
iio.gif instrument handle out The instrument handle that you obtain from the IviACPwr Initialize or IviACPwr Initialize With Options VIs.
ierrcodeclst.gif error out The error out cluster passes error or warning information out of a VI to be used by other VIs.

The pop-up option Explain Error (or Explain Warning) gives more information about the error displayed.
