DT ConfigureHistoricalAcquisitionThruModem.vi

LabVIEW DataTaker Driver >> DataTaker Intermediate Level Modem >> DT ConfigureHistoricalAcquisitionThruModem.vi

Uses modem communications. Configures the historical acquisition of multiple dataTaker channels. Initiates modem connection, detects dataTaker version, configures dataTaker for acquisition, and sets the channels that will comprise the acquisition.

Error Message Generated

- DT INTERMEDIATE ERROR: Unable to configure historical acquisition using modem.

Controls and Indicators

cenum

storage mode specifies the dataTaker storage mode (logging on or logging off). If it is set to default, the previous dataTaker storage mode is used.

cu32

max dial in time (ms,30000) is the maximum amount of time in ms, to try to dial in before timing out. The default is 30000 ms, or 30 seconds.

cstr

phone number is the phone number used to connect to a dataTaker using a modem connection.

cenum

DT type shows the type of dataTaker that is connected (DT800 or the DT500 family).

cvsrn

VISA resource name is the VISA resource used for serial communications (ignore when using DARTS protocol).

cclstb

port config: serial port configuration options (data bits, stop bits, parity, and flow control are ignored when using DARTS protocol).

    cenum

    parity is the parity used for the connection. The DT 500 uses none, while the DT800 uses none, odd, or even parity.

    cu16

    stop bits specifies the number of stop bits used to indicate the end of a frame.

    cu16

    data bits is the number of bits in the incoming data.

    cu32

    baud rate is the rate of transmission

    cenum

    flow control sets the type of control used by the transfer mechanism.

cenum

protocol specifies whether to use standard serial communications, or the DARTS protocol (DT500 only).

cclstp

The error in cluster 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.

The pop-up option Explain Error (or Explain Warning) gives more information about the error displayed.

    cbool

    The status boolean is either TRUE (X) for an error, or FALSE (checkmark) for no error or a warning.

    ci32

    The code input identifies the error or warning.

    cstr

    The source string describes the origin of the error or warning.

c1dclstp

schedule config list is an array of schedule config clusters. This allows individual schedules to be configured.

    cclstp

    schedule config is a cluster that contains details on a schedules configuration.

      cenum

      schedule ID is the schedule which generated the historical waveform.

      c1dclstp

      channel list is an array of clusters. Where each cluster contains details on a channels configuration.

        cclstp

        intermediate channel config is a cluster that contains details on the channels configuration.

          cstr

          channel number is the number or name of the dataTaker channel.

          cenum

          channel type is the type of sensor connected to the channel.

          cenum

          channel wiring is the type of wiring configuration used to connect the sensor to the channel.

          c1dstr

          channel option list is the channel option of the particular channel.

          NOTE Multiple channel options can be entered in each element of the array, or in a single array element, separated by comma's. No brackets, "()", are required.

      cu16

      trigger time is the time interval of the schedules trigger.

      cenum

      time trigger type specifies the units of time the schedule is to trigger with.

iclst

connection data out contains information about a dataTaker connection.

    ienum

    connection type is the type of connection used to communicate to the dataTaker.

    iclst

    DT serial contains the serial session configuration information.

      ienum

      protocol: specifies whether to use standard serial communications, or the DARTS protocol (DT500 only).

      ivsrn

      VISA resource name: the VISA resource to use for serial communications (ignore when using DARTS protocol).

      idlrn

      DARTS reference Reference to a DT DARTS object.

      idlrn

      serial buffer reference Reference to a DT SerialBuffer object.

    incrn

    TCPIP connection id is a reference to the TCPIP connection.

    ienum

    DT type shows the type of dataTaker that is connected (DT800 or the DT500 family).

    idlrn

    current job reference Reference to a DT CurrentJob object.

    idlrn

    DT800 hist reference Reference to a DT DT800History object.

iclst

The error out cluster passes error or warning information out of a VI to be used by other VIs.

The pop-up option Explain Error (or Explain Warning) gives more information about the error displayed.

    ibool

    The status boolean is either TRUE (X) for an error, or FALSE (checkmark) for no error or a warning.

    ii32

    The code input identifies the error or warning.

    istr

    The source string describes the origin of the error or warning.
