HIL Task Create Reader Encoder (Scalar)

HIL Task Create Reader Encoder (Scalar)

Parent Polymorphic VI:HIL Task Create Reader

Requirements:Quanser Rapid Control Prototyping Toolkit, LabVIEW 2020 or newer


Description

Create a task for reading from an encoder input channel.


Required Inputs All required inputs must be wired. They appear in bold text in the context help window for the VI.
board in

board in is a reference to a HIL Board instance that represents the open HIL board. This input must be wired to a valid HIL Board signal, as generated by a HIL Initialize VI.


Outputs

task out

task out is a HIL Task instance that can be passed to other VIs that require a HIL Task instance.

error out error out contains error information. If the error in cluster indicated an error, the error out cluster contains the same information. Otherwise, error out describes the error status of this VI.
status icon status is TRUE if an error occurred. If status is TRUE, the VI does not perform any operations.
code icon code is the error code number identifying an error. A value of 0 means no error, a negative value means a fatal error, and a positive value is a warning. Refer to the Quanser Error Codes for a code description.
source icon source identifies where an error occurred. The source string is usually the name of the VI that produced the error.


Details

This VI creates a task for reading from one encoder input. When reading from mixed signal types, it is more efficient to use the HIL Task Create Reader Mixed than to include multiple VIs specific to each type of channel.


Feedthrough Behaviour

All input/output pairs of this function have direct feedthrough behaviour.
