Principles of Operation
79
To select continuously paced analog output mode, use software to specify the following
parameters:
• Specify the data flow as Continuous
• Specify WrapSingleBuffer as False to use multiple buffers
• Specify the clock source as internal and specify the clock frequency. Refer to
for
more information about the clock source and frequency.
• Specify the trigger source as any of the supported trigger sources. Refer to
for
more information about the supported trigger sources.
• To start the analog input and analog output operations simultaneously using the DT-Open
Layers for .NET Class Library, use the
SimultaneousStart.AddSubsystem,
SimultaneousStart.PreStart
, and
SimultaneousStart.Start
methods. Refer to the
documentation for the DT-Open Layers for .NET Class Library for more information.
We recommend that you allocate a minimum of two buffers for a continuously paced analog
output operation. Data is written from multiple output buffers continuously; when no more
buffers of data are available, the operation stops. The data is gap-free.
The DT9837, DT9837A, and DT9837C modules support the ability to mute the output voltage
to 0 V. Muting the output does not stop the analog output operation; instead, the analog
output voltage is reduced to 0 V over 1020 samples. When desired, you can use unmute the
output voltage to its current level. Refer to your software documentation for more information
on muting and unmuting the output voltage.
To stop a continuously paced analog output operation, you can stop queuing buffers for the
analog output system, letting the module stop when it runs out of data, or you can perform
either an orderly stop or an abrupt stop using software. In an orderly stop, the module finishes
outputting the specified number of samples, and then stops; all subsequent triggers are
ignored. In an abrupt stop, the module stops outputting samples immediately; all subsequent
triggers are ignored.
Reading the Analog Output Value in the Analog Input Data Stream
(DT9837A Only)
On the DT9837A module, you can read back the value of the analog output channel in the
analog input data stream. Specify channel 7 in the analog input channel list to read back the
value of the analog output channel.
When the analog input operation is started, the value of the analog output channel is returned
in the analog input data stream. (An analog value is returned.) The software automatically
synchronizes the value of the analog output channel with the analog input measurements, so
that all measurements are correlated in time.
