AnalogUnscaledReader.ReadUInt32 Method

AnalogUnscaledReaderReadUInt32 Method

Reads one or more unscaled 32-bit unsigned integer samples from one or more AIChannel objects in a task.

Namespace:  NationalInstruments.DAQmx
Assembly:  NationalInstruments.DAQmx (in NationalInstruments.DAQmx.dll) Version: 20.7.40.49302

Syntax

public uint[,] ReadUInt32(
	int samplesPerChannel
)
Public Function ReadUInt32 ( 
	samplesPerChannel As Integer
) As UInteger(,)

Parameters

samplesPerChannel
Type: SystemInt32
The number of samples to read. If you set samplesPerChannel to -1 for a continuous acquisition, the read retrieves all samples available in the buffer at the time of the read. If you set samplesPerChannel to -1 for a finite acquisition, the read behavior is set by the ReadAllAvailableSamples property of the DaqStream you are reading from.

Return Value

Type: UInt32
A 2D array of unscaled 32-bit unsigned integer samples from the task. Each element in the first dimension of the array corresponds to a channel in the task. Each element in the second dimension of the array corresponds to a sample from that channel. The order of the channels in the array corresponds to the order in which you add the channels to the task or to the order of the channels you specify in ChannelsToRead.

Exceptions

ExceptionCondition
DaqExceptionThe NI-DAQmx driver returned an error.
OutOfMemoryExceptionThere is not enough memory to carry out this operation.

Remarks

NI-DAQmx read and write methods time out after the amount of time specified by the Timeout property on the task you are reading from or writing to.

Refer to NI-DAQmx Readers and Writers for more information about memory limitations in NI-DAQmx read methods.
