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

|
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. |

|
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. |

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

|
baud rate is the rate of transmission |

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

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

|
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. |

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

|
The code input identifies the error or warning. |

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

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

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

|
schedule ID is the schedule which generated the historical waveform. |

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

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

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

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

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

|
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. |

|
trigger time is the time interval of the schedules trigger. |

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

|
connection data out contains information about a dataTaker connection. |

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

|
DT serial contains the serial session configuration information. |

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

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

|
DARTS reference Reference to a DT DARTS object. |

|
serial buffer reference Reference to a DT SerialBuffer object. |

|
TCPIP connection id is a reference to the TCPIP connection. |

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

|
current job reference Reference to a DT CurrentJob object. |

|
DT800 hist reference Reference to a DT DT800History object. |

|
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. |

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

|
The code input identifies the error or warning.
|

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