DAQmx Switch Channel Properties

DAQmx Switch Channel Properties

Use the DAQmx Switch Channel properties to modify the usage of a switch channel and to query the capabilities of a switch channel.

PropertyDescription
Active Switch Channel Specifies the switch channel to which the subsequent properties apply. Details
Deprecated:Usage (Deprecated) Specifies how you can use the channel. Using this property acts as a safety mechanism to prevent you from connecting two source channels, for example. Details
Deprecated:Analog Bus Sharing Enable (Deprecated) Specifies whether to enable sharing of an analog bus line so that multiple switch devices can connect to it simultaneously. For each device that will share the analog bus line, set this property to TRUE to enable sharing on the channel that connects to the analog bus line. Analog bus sharing is disabled by default. Details
Deprecated:Capability:Max AC Carry Current (Deprecated) Indicates in amperes the maximum AC current that the device can carry. Details
Deprecated:Capability:Max AC Switching Current (Deprecated) Indicates in amperes the maximum AC current that the device can switch. This current is always against an RMS voltage level. Details
Deprecated:Capability:Max AC Carry Power (Deprecated) Indicates in watts the maximum AC power that the device can carry. Details
Deprecated:Capability:Max AC Switching Power (Deprecated) Indicates in watts the maximum AC power that the device can switch. Details
Deprecated:Capability:Max DC Carry Current (Deprecated) Indicates in amperes the maximum DC current that the device can carry. Details
Deprecated:Capability:Max DC Switching Current (Deprecated) Indicates in amperes the maximum DC current that the device can switch. This current is always against a DC voltage level. Details
Deprecated:Capability:Max DC Carry Power (Deprecated) Indicates in watts the maximum DC power that the device can carry. Details
Deprecated:Capability:Max DC Switching Power (Deprecated) Indicates in watts the maximum DC power that the device can switch. Details
Deprecated:Capability:Max AC Voltage (Deprecated) Indicates in volts the maximum AC RMS voltage that the device can switch. Details
Deprecated:Capability:Max DC Voltage (Deprecated) Indicates in volts the maximum DC voltage that the device can switch. Details
Deprecated:Capability:Wire Mode (Deprecated) Indicates the number of wires that the channel switches. Details
Deprecated:Capability:Bandwidth (Deprecated) Indicates in Hertz the maximum frequency of a signal that can pass through the switch without significant deterioration. Details
Deprecated:Capability:Impedance (Deprecated) Indicates in ohms the switch impedance. This value is important in the RF domain and should match the impedance of the sources and loads. Details
