Commands:
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
| StateInput: DevVoid Output: State |
This command gets the device state (stored in its device_state data member) and returns it to the caller. |
| StatusInput: DevVoid Output: DevString |
This command gets the device status (stored in its device_status data member) and returns it to the caller. |
| StartInput: DevVoid Output: DevVoid |
Start counting. |
| AbortInput: DevVoid Output: DevVoid |
Stop the current counting action. |
| ResetBoardInput: DevVoid Output: DevVoid |
Reset the physical board. The device needs to be init after. |
| ResetCounterInput: DevShort Output: DevVoid |
Reset the current value of a counter (put it to 0). NB: To reset all counters, use Init command. |
| GetDriverVersionInput: DevVoid Output: DevString |
Get the current driver version used to control the counting board. |
| GetBoardsInChassisInput: DevVoid Output: DevString |
Get a string containing all the boards names (from NI) present in the chassis where this device is running. This names are defined in MAX. |
| GetBoardTypeInput: DevString Output: DevString |
Returns the type (ex: PXI-6602) of a specified board. |
| StopInput: DevVoid Output: DevVoid |
Stop the acquisition. |
Pipes:
Properties:
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
| BoardNameDevString | The name of the board as specified in Measurement & Automation eXplorer (MAX). |
| IsMasterDevShort | Specify if the board generates the counting signal or if this signal comes from an external input. - If 1, the counter0 will generate the signal that specify the integration time of the other counters of the board. -If 0, the integration time will come from the input PFI38. |
| SlavesProxiesString[]Type | The slaves device names (used only if IsMaster is equals to 1). |
| ModeDevShort | The chosen mode: - 1 : time mode, the counters will count for the time indicated by the attribute integrationTime (in secs) - 0: pulse mode, the counters will count until counter 1 has reached the value indicated by the attribute integrationTime (integer) |
