Establishes communication with the GXE600 DC Power Supply (PS) and optionally performs a PS identification query and/or a PS reset. This also places the PS in a default state needed for other instrument driver operations. Therefore, call this VI before calling other instrument driver VIs for this PS. Generally, you need to call the Initialize VI only once at the beginning of an application.
error in (no error) error in can accept error information wired from VIs previously called. Use this information to decide if any functionality should be bypassed in the event of errors from other VIs. Right-click the error in control on the front panel and select Explain Error or Explain Warning from the shortcut menu for more information about the error. |
status status is TRUE (X) if an error occurred or FALSE (checkmark) to indicate a warning or that no error occurred. Right-click the error in control on the front panel and select Explain Error or Explain Warning from the shortcut menu for more information about the error. |
code code is the error or warning code. Right-click the error in control on the front panel and select Explain Error or Explain Warning from the shortcut menu for more information about the error. |
source source describes the origin of the error or warning. Right-click the error in control on the front panel and select Explain Error or Explain Warning from the shortcut menu for more information about the error. |
VISA resource name Specifies which instrument to use. Instruments that are powered on and connected to your computer are visible in the VISA resource name pull-down menu. Select the resource name from the VISA resource name pull-down menu. If your instrument does not appear in this list, enter the instrument descriptor using the following format: Interface Type[board index]::Address::INSTR. Examples: GPIB: GPIB::22::INSTR, GPIB board 0, primary address 22 Serial: COM1 TCP/IP Instr: TCPIP::10.0.32.48::INSTR TCP/IP Socket: TCPIP::10.0.32.45::3800::SOCKET USB Instr: Selectable from VISA Resource Name pull-down menu USB Raw: You must first link VISA to non-USBTMC instruments by using the VISA Driver Development Wizard VISA Alias: "SampleInstr" - Alias names are configured in MAX Refer to the LabVIEW Help for more information about specifying a VISA resource name. Note! GXE accepts only Serial type. |
Baud Rate (3 : 19200 bps) Select Baud Rate to communicate. Default GXE baud rate is 19200 bps. |
Parity Bit (2 : Even) Select Parity bit to communicate. Stop bits are specified automatically. Default GXE parity is Even. |
Unit ID (1) Select GXE ID to communicate. ID should be from 1 to 247. ID : 0 is a broadcast ID and returns no response. Default GXE ID is ' 1 '. |
Time out (250ms) Set time-out value of communication. GXE need minimum turn-around time to 100 msec, so default time-out set to 250 msec (twice and a half of turn-around time). |
error out error out passes error or warning information out of a VI to be used by other VIs.
Right-click the error out control on the front panel and select Explain Error or Explain Warning from the shortcut menu for more information about the error. |
status status is TRUE (X) if an error occurred or FALSE (checkmark) to indicate a warning or that no error occurred. Right-click the error out control on the front panel and select Explain Error or Explain Warning from the shortcut menu for more information about the error. |
code code is the error or warning code. Right-click the error out control on the front panel and select Explain Error or Explain Warning from the shortcut menu for more information about the error. |
source source describes the origin of the error or warning. Right-click the error out control on the front panel and select Explain Error or Explain Warning from the shortcut menu for more information about the error. |
Modbus master out Modbus master out returns the Modbus master instance provided as input. |
