IviRFSigGen Configure Sweep
IviRFSigGenSweep Capability Group
This VI configures the signal generator sweep mode and trigger source.
 |
instrument handle The instrument handle that you obtain from the IviRFSigGen Initialize or IviRFSigGen Initialize With Options VIs. |
 |
mode Specifies the sweep mode applied to the output signal. The driver uses this value to set the IviRFSigGen>>Sweep>>Sweep Mode property. Defined Values: IVIRFSIGGEN_VAL_SWEEP_MODE_NONE - The RF output of the signal generator is a non-swept signal (Continuous Wave) using the frequency and power/level specified in the IviRFSigGen Configure RF VI. IVIRFSIGGEN_VAL_SWEEP_MODE_FREQUENCY_SWEEP - The signal generator sweeps the RF output signal's frequency in an analog form (non-stepped). IVIRFSIGGEN_VAL_SWEEP_MODE_POWER_SWEEP - The signal generator sweeps the RF output signal's power in an analog form (non-stepped). IVIRFSIGGEN_VAL_SWEEP_MODE_FREQUENCY_STEP - The signal generator sweeps the RF output signals frequency in steps. IVIRFSIGGEN_VAL_SWEEP_MODE_POWER_STEP - The signal generator sweeps the RF output signals power level in steps. IVIRFSIGGEN_VAL_SWEEP_MODE_LIST - The signal generator uses two lists with frequency and power level values to sweep the RF output signals. Default Value: IVIRFSIGGEN_VAL_SWEEP_MODE_NONE |
|
trigger source Specifies the trigger used to start a sweep operation. The driver uses this value to set the IviRFSigGen>>Sweep>>Sweep Trigger Source property.
Defined Values: IVIRFSIGGEN_VAL_SWEEP_TRIGGER_SOURCE_IMMEDIATE - The sweep system does not wait for a trigger of any kind, so it is running continuously. IVIRFSIGGEN_VAL_SWEEP_TRIGGER_SOURCE_EXTERNAL - The sweep is started with an external signal. IVIRFSIGGEN_VAL_SWEEP_TRIGGER_SOURCE_SOFTWARE - The sweep is started with a software programmable trigger. Default Value: IVIRFSIGGEN_VAL_SWEEP_TRIGGER_SOURCE_IMMEDIATE |

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. |
