IviDownconverter Is Calibrated [CAL]
IviDownconverterCalibration Capability Group
This VI queries the instrument to determine whether the instrument is currently in a valid self-calibrated state or whether it needs to be calibrated.
This VI returns the Calibrated value in the status parameter when the device does not need further self-calibration. If it does need self-calibration, the driver returns the Uncalibrated value. If the driver cannot query the instrument to determine its state, the driver returns the Calibrated Status Unknown value.
 |
Note This VI does not check the instrument status. Typically, You call this VI only in a sequence of calls to other low-level driver VIs. The sequence performs one operation. You use the low-level VIs to optimize one or more aspects of interaction with the instrument. To check the instrument status, call the IviDownconverter Error-Query VI at the conclusion of the sequence. |

|
instrument handle The instrument handle that you obtain from the IviDownconverter Initialize or IviDownconverter Initialize With Options VI. The handle identifies a particular instrument session.
Default Value: None |
 |
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 IviDownconverter Initialize or IviDownconverter Initialize With Options VI. The handle identifies a particular instrument session.
Default Value: None |
 |
status Returns whether the instrument needs to be calibrated.
Defined Values: IVIDOWNCONVERTER_VAL_CALIBRATED - The downconverter is calibrated. IVIDOWNCONVERTER_VAL_UNCALIBRATED - The downconverter requires further calibration. IVIDOWNCONVERTER_VAL_CALIBRATED_STATUS_UNKNOWN - The downconverter cannot determine the status of the calibration. |
 |
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. |
