ciLxs_ConfigureAcquisitionStartTime
ViStatus ciLxs_ConfigureAcquisitionStartTime (ViSession instrumentHandle,
ViReal64 startTime);
Purpose
This function configures the length of time from the acquire trigger
event to the first point in the record.
Parameter List
instrumentHandle
Variable Type ViSession
The ViSession handle that you obtain from the ciLxs_init or
ciLxs_InitWithOptions function. The handle identifies a particular
instrument session.
Default Value: None
startTime
Variable Type ViReal64
Specifies the length of time from the acquire trigger event to the
first point in the record. If the value is positive, the first point
in the record occurs after the acquire trigger event. If the value
is negative, the first point in the record occurs before the acquire
trigger event. The driver sets the CILXS_ATTR_ACQUISITION_START_TIME
to this value.
Units: seconds
Valid Range:
Range depends on the CILXS_ATTR_ACQUISITION_TIME_INTERVAL attribute.
Following formula is valid.
min = -4095 * CILXS_ATTR_ACQUISITION_TIME_INTERVAL
max = 2e9 * CILXS_ATTR_ACQUISITION_TIME_INTERVAL
Default Value: 0.0
Return Value
Returns the status code of this operation. The status code either
indicates success or describes an error or warning condition. You
examine the status code from each call to an instrument driver
function to determine if an error occurred.
To obtain a text description of the status code, call the
ciLxs_error_message function. To obtain additional information about
the error condition, call the ciLxs_GetError function. To clear the
error information from the driver, call the ciLxs_ClearError
function.
