Specifying Channel Strings in NI-DAQmx
Use the channel input of
DAQmx Create Channel
to specify the
SCXI-1125 channels. The input control/constant has a pull-down menu
showing all available external channels. The strings take one of the
following forms:
•
single device identifier/channel number—for example
SC1Mod1/ch0
•
multiple, noncontinuous channels—for example
SC1Mod1/ch0,
SC1Mod1/ch4
•
multiple continuous channels—for example
SC1Mod1/ch0:4
(channels 0 through 4)
•
cold junction channel—
SC1Mod1/_cjtemp
When you have a task containing SCXI-1125 channels, you can set the
properties of the channels programmatically using the
DAQmx Channel
Property Node
.
