Short Name: InputLimitsFaultChansExist

Property of DAQmx Read

Indicates if the device or devices detected a sample that was outside the upper or lower limits configured for each channel in the task. Reading this property clears the input limits fault channel status for all channels in the task. You must read this property before you read InputLimitsFaultChans. Otherwise, you will receive an error. Note: Fault detection applies to both positive and negative inputs. For instance, if you specify a lower limit of 2 mA and an upper limit of 12 mA, NI-DAQmx detects a fault at 15 mA and -15 mA, but not at -6 mA because it is in the range of -12 mA to -2 mA.
