Description
PCI_SUCCESS
Function executed without errors
PCI_INS_ALREADY_OPEN
Trying to establish new communication link while instrument has already been connected.
Error Codes
Description
PXI_COMMAND_ERROR
if value is 0x8000000, error is in SCPI syntax or other errors relating to instrument setability .SCPI
error list is given in the SCPI Commands reference.
If value is larger than 0x8000000, look for problems in the communication with the PXA125. Most
probable cause for such errors is not invoking the Arb Detector program after you power up your
computer.
Description
The PXA125 is a waveform generator. There are three types of waveforms that the
instrument can generate: 1) Standard waveforms, 2) Arbitrary waveforms and 3) Waveforms
that are frequency modulated by arbitrary modulating waveforms. Every time that the
instrument is being asked to generate waveforms, it must have waveform coordinates in its
