hil_write_analog
Writes to analog outputs immediately.
Description
The hil_write_analog function writes to the specified analog output channels immediately. The function does not return until the data has been written.
Prototype
t_error hil_write_analog(t_card card, const t_uint32 analog_channels[], t_uint32 num_channels, const t_double buffer[]);
Parameters
t_card card
A handle to the board, as returned by hil_open .
const t_uint32 [] analog_channels
An array containing the channel numbers of the analog outputs to be written.
Select a board type from the list for board-specific details: .
t_uint32 num_channels
The number of channels specified in the analog_channels array.
const t_double [] buffer
An array containing the voltage values to write to the analog outputs. The array must contain num_channels elements. Each element in the buffer array corresponds to the same element in the analog_channels array.
Return value
The return value is 0 if the analog outputs are written successfully. Otherwise a
negative error code is returned. Error codes are
defined in quanser_errors.h
. A suitable error message
may be retrieved using
msg_get_error_message
.
Error codes
QERR_HIL_WRITE_ANALOG_NOT_SUPPORTED
This function is not supported by the board-specific HIL driver for this board type.
QERR_INVALID_CARD_HANDLE
An invalid card handle was passed as an argument. Once a card has been closed using hil_close the card handle is invalid.
QERR_MISSING_ANALOG_OUTPUTS
The analog_channels argument is NULL. If the number of channels is greater than zero then a channel vector must be provided.
QERR_MISSING_ANALOG_OUTPUT_BUFFER
The buffer argument is NULL. If the number of channels is greater than zero then a buffer must be provided.
QERR_TOO_MANY_ANALOG_OUTPUT_CHANNELS
Too many analog output channels were specified.
QERR_INVALID_ANALOG_OUTPUT_CHANNEL
One of the analog output channels that was specified is not a valid channel number. Channel numbers range from 0 to one less than the number of channels.
QERR_DRIVER_INCOMPATIBLE_WITH_BOARD_DLL
The board-specific HIL driver passed an invalid parameter to the operating system specific kernel-level driver for the board. The board-specific HIL driver is likely not compatible with the operating system specific kernel-level driver for the board. Make sure both are up-to-date and compatible versions.
QERR_INTERNAL_BUFFER_TOO_SMALL
The board-specific HIL driver used an internal buffer that was too small for the operating system specific kernel-level driver for the board. The board-specific HIL driver is likely not compatible with the operating system specific kernel-level driver for the board. Make sure both are up-to-date and compatible versions.
QERR_OUT_OF_REQUIRED_SYSTEM_RESOURCES
There are not enough system resources to perform the requested operation. Try rebooting, requesting fewer samples, or adding more memory to your machine.
