IviRFSigGen Configure Pulse External Trigger [PG]

IviRFSigGenPulseGenerator Capability Group

This VI configures the triggering of the pulse generator within the RF signal generator. This VI specifies the external trigger slope and the delay time for starting the pulse after the trigger pulse.

instrument handle The instrument handle that you obtain from the IviRFSigGen Initialize or IviRFSigGen Initialize With Options VIs.
external slope Specifies whether the event occurs on the rising or falling edge of the input signal. The driver uses this value to set the IviRFSigGen>>Pulse Generator>>Pulse External Trigger Slope property.

Defined Values: IVIRFSIGGEN_VAL_PULSE_EXTERNAL_TRIGGER_SLOPE_POSITIVE
- Enables rising edge triggering.

IVIRFSIGGEN_VAL_PULSE_EXTERNAL_TRIGGER_SLOPE_NEGATIVE
- Enables falling edge triggering.

Default Value: IVIRFSIGGEN_VAL_PULSE_EXTERNAL_TRIGGER_SLOPE_POSITIVE
delay Specifies the delay for starting the output pulse with respect to the trigger input.

Units: Seconds

Default Value: 0.0
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 IviRFSigGen Initialize or IviRFSigGen Initialize With Options VIs.
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.
