Configuring a Peer-to-Peer Endpoint
Any driver property that is associated with an instance of an endpoint is an endpoint-based property.
Configuring a Peer-to-Peer Endpoint with NI-RFSG
-
Set the Active Channel property using an appropriate string when
configuring endpoint-based properties.
The syntax "FIF0endpointN" is used to tell NI-RFSG which RF vector signal transceiver endpoint is being specified, where N is an integer starting with 0. If the RF vector signal transceiver supports multiple endpoints, the first is "FIF0endpoint0", the second is "FIF0Endpoint1," and so on.
- Set the P2P Enabled property to True.
- To determine how many endpoints your RF vector signal transceiver supports, query the Endpoint Count property.
-
Perform either a continuous generation or a finite generation.
- Continuous generation: Set the Number of Records is Finite property to False
- Finite generation: Set the Is Finite P2P Generation property to True, and set the Number of P2P Samples to Generate property to the number of samples that should be generated

- Set the P2P Enabled property to True.
- To determine how many endpoints your RF vector signal transceiver supports, query the P2P FIFO Endpoint Count property.
-
Perform either a continuous acquisition or a finite acquisition.
- Continuous acquisition: Set the Number of Records is Finite property to False
- Finite acquisition: Set the Number of Samples is Finite property to True and set the Number of Samples property to the number of samples that should be acquired

- Stopping Peer-to-Peer Generation
Avoid receiving an underflow error by using a supported technique to stop peer-to-peer generation.
- Stopping Peer-to-Peer Acquisition
When stopping peer-to-peer acquisition, you must clear the data from the stream before starting a new acquisition.
