Timing.AIConvertMaximumRate Property

Timing.AIConvertMaximumRate Property

TimingAIConvertMaximumRate Property

Indicates the maximum convert rate supported by the task, given the current devices and channel count.

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

Syntax

public double AIConvertMaximumRate { get; }
Public ReadOnly Property AIConvertMaximumRate As Double
	Get

Property Value

Type: Double
Indicates the maximum convert rate supported by the task, given the current devices and channel count.

Exceptions

ExceptionCondition
DaqExceptionThe NI-DAQmx driver returned an error.

Remarks

This rate is generally faster than the default AI Convert Clock rate selected by NI-DAQmx, because NI-DAQmx adds in an additional 10 microseconds per channel settling time to compensate for most potential system settling constraints.

For single channel tasks, the maximum AI Convert Clock rate is the maximum rate of the ADC. For multiple channel tasks, the maximum AI Convert Clock rate is the maximum convert rate of the analog hardware, including the ADC, filters, multiplexers, and amplifiers. Signal conditioning accessories can further constrain the maximum AI Convert Clock based on timing and settling requirements.
