DAQmx Buffer Properties
Use the DAQmx Buffer properties to configure input and output buffers in computer memory and to query the size of device onboard buffers.
| Property | Description |
|---|---|
| Input:Buffer Size | Specifies the number of samples the input buffer can hold for each channel in the task. Zero indicates to allocate no buffer. Use a buffer size of 0 to perform a hardware-timed operation without using a buffer. Setting this property overrides the automatic input buffer allocation that NI-DAQmx performs. Details |
| Input:Onboard Buffer Size | Indicates in samples per channel the size of the onboard input buffer of the device. Details |
| Output:Buffer Size | Specifies the number of samples the output buffer can hold for each channel in the task. Zero indicates to allocate no buffer. Use a buffer size of 0 to perform a hardware-timed operation without using a buffer. Setting this property overrides the automatic output buffer allocation that NI-DAQmx performs. Details |
| Output:Onboard Buffer Size | Specifies in samples per channel the size of the onboard output buffer of the device. Details |
