IviFgen Query Arb Waveform Capabilities
IviFgenArbWfm Capability Group [SEQ]
This VI returns the properties of the function generator that are related to creating arbitrary waveforms. These properties are the maximum number of waveforms, waveform quantum, minimum waveform size, and maximum waveform size.
![]() |
instrument handle The instrument handle that you obtain from the IviFgen Initialize or IviFgen Initialize With Options VI. |
![]() |
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 IviFgen Initialize or IviFgen Initialize With Options VI. |
![]() |
max number of waveforms Returns the maximum number of arbitrary waveforms that the function generator allows. The driver obtains this value from the IviFgen Max Number of Waveforms [ARB] property. |
![]() |
waveform quantum The size (such as, number of points) of each waveform must be a multiple of a constant quantum value. This parameter obtains the quantum value the function generator uses. The driver returns this value from the IviFgen Waveform Quantum [ARB] property. For example, when this property returns a value of 8, all waveform sizes must be a multiple of 8. |
![]() |
min waveform size Returns the minimum number of points the function generator allows in a waveform. The driver obtains this value from the IviFgen Min Waveform Size [ARB] property. |
![]() |
max waveform size Returns the maximum number of points the function generator allows in a waveform. The driver obtains this value from the IviFgen Max Waveform Size [ARB] property. |
![]() |
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. |
