Format
daqDacWaveSetUserWave(handle, deviceType, chan)
Purpose
daqDacWaveSetUserWave configures a user-defined buffer for DAC waveform output.
Parameter Summary
Parameter Type Description
handle DaqHandleT Handle to the device to which the user-defined waveform
will be output
deviceType DaqDacDeviceType Specifies the DAC device type
chan DWORD Specifies the DAC device channel
Parameter Values
handle: obtained from the daqOpen function
deviceType: see table below
chan: valid values depend on the values chosen for the deviceType parameter; see the deviceType
table below

Definition chan Value Description
0 Configure a user defined waveform for waveform/pattern output operation,
where DAC0 is one of the channels being output.
1 Configure a user defined waveform for waveform/pattern output operation,
where DAC1 is one of the channels being output.
2 Configure a user defined waveform for waveform/pattern output operation,
where DAC2 is one of the channels being output.
DddtLocal
3 Configure a user defined waveform for waveform/pattern output operation,
where DAC3 is one of the channels being output.
DddtLocalDigital NA The 16-bit P3 Digital port is not applicable.
Returns
DerrInvDacChan The DAC channel number doesn’t exist
DerrInvBuf A waveform buffer was not specified
DerrMemAlloc Not enough memory was available to build the waveform
DerrNotCapable Hardware is not capable of this function
DerrNoError No error
