IVI Compliance Package

IviDmm Is Over-Range

IviDmm Base Capability Group

This VI takes a measurement value that you obtain from either the Read or Fetch VIs and determines if the value is a valid measurement value or a value indicating that an overrange condition occurred.

Note  This VI does not check the instrument status.


instrument handle The instrument handle that you obtain from the IviDmm Initialize or IviDmm Initialize With Options VI.
measurement value Pass the measurement value that you obtain from either the Read or Fetch VI. The driver tests this value to determine if the value is a valid measurement value or a value indicating that an overrange condition occurred.

Default Value: 0.0

Note  If an overrange condition occurs, the measurement value contains an IEEE-defined NaN (Not a Number) value indicating that an overrange occurred.
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.

instrument handle out The instrument handle that you obtain from the IviDmm Initialize or IviDmm Initialize With Options VI.
is overrange Returns whether the measured value is a valid measurement or a value indicating that an overrange condition occurred.

Return Values:

True—The value indicates an overrange condition occurred.

False—The value is a valid measurement.

Note  If an overrange condition occurs, the measurement value contains an IEEE-defined NaN (Not a Number) value indicating that an overrange occurred.
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.
