Syntax

Gx3348PulseGenGetMode (nHandle, pnMode, pnStatus)

Parameters

Name
Type
Description
nHandle
SHORT
Handle for the PXI board.
pnMode
PSHORT
Returns the Function Generator mode of operation, modes are:
0.     GX3348_FUNC_GEN_MODE_CONTINUOUS: continuously outputting waveforms.
1.   GX3348_FUNC_GEN_MODE_TRIGGERED: each trigger, results in one waveforms.  
pnStatus
PSHORT
Returned status: 0 on success, negative number on failure.

Comments

Note: Function Generator functionality is only supported by firmware version 0x0000AC00 and above, use the Gx3348FuncGenIsSupported() API to check if supported.

Example

The following example sets the operation mode to trigger, and return the operation mode.

Note: see the Gx3348FuncGenTrigger() API for a complete C example.

 

SHORT nHandle, nStatus, nMode;

 

Gx3348FuncGenSetMode(nHandle, GX3348_FUNC_GEN_MODE_TRIGGERED, &nStatus);

Gx3348FuncGenGetMode(nHandle, &nMode, &nStatus);
