The response will be changed by
channel.setbackplane()
, replacing the analog backplane
relays with the new specified list.
The response will be cleared if
channel.setpole()
sets a new pole selection.
The analog backplane relays indicated by this response are not used or affected by:
•
dmm.close()
or
dmm.open()
•
scan.execute()
or
scan.background()
if channel is configured for measuring
The parameter string can contain
"slot
X
"
, where
X
equals 1 to 6, or
"allslots"
.
An error is generated if:
•
A specified channel does not exist for the card installed in a slot
•
A channel pattern is specified in parameter list
•
A specified channel does not have analog backplane relays associated with it, such as digital I/O
•
An analog backplane relay is specified in parameter list
When
channelList
contains multiple items, the string returned includes the analog backplane relay
channels of a single channel separated by a comma. A semicolon is used to delineate channels.
For channel patterns, the analog backplane relays must be specified when creating the pattern in the
channel list parameter
— see
channel.pattern.setimage()
or
channel.pattern.snapshot()
. Therefore, to see the channels and analog backplane relays
associated with a channel pattern, use the
channel.pattern.getimage()
function.
Command processing stops as soon as an error is detected and a
nil
response is then returned. No
partial list is returned.
For digital I/O, DAC, and totalizer channels, nothing is returned.
