FIFO Fullness

NIRFSG_ATTR_P2P_ENDPOINT_FULLNESS_START_TRIGGER_LEVEL

Specific Attribute

Numeric Value Data Type Access Coercion High-Level Functions
1150128 ViInt32 R/W Yes None

Description

Specifies the number of samples the endpoint must receive before the device starts generation. If no level is specified, NI-RFSG automatically sets this value to -1. This attribute applies only when the NIRFSG_ATTR_START_TRIGGER_TYPE attribute is set to NIRFSG_VAL_P2P_ENDPOINT_FULLNESS.

Note Note  Due to an additional internal FIFO in the RF signal generator, the writer peer actually needs to write 2,304 bytes more than the quantity of data specified by this attribute to satisfy the trigger level.
Default Value: -1, which allows NI-RFSG to select the appropriate fullness value.

Supported Devices: PXIe-5673E, PXIe-5820/5830/5831/5832/5840/5841

1250458 ViInt32 R/W None niRFSG_ConfigureDigitalEdgeStartTrigger
niRFSG_ConfigureSoftwareStartTrigger
niRFSG_DisableStartTrigger

Description

Specifies the Start Trigger type. Depending upon the value of this attribute, more attributes may be needed to fully configure the trigger. To set this attribute, the NI-RFSG device must be in the Configuration state.

Defined Values:

NIRFSG_VAL_NONE No trigger is configured.
NIRFSG_VAL_DIGITAL_EDGE The data operation does not start until a digital edge is detected. The source of the digital edge is specified with the NIRFSG_ATTR_DIGITAL_EDGE_START_TRIGGER_SOURCE attribute, and the active edge is specified in the NIRFSG_ATTR_DIGITAL_EDGE_START_TRIGGER_EDGE attribute.
NIRFSG_VAL_SOFTWARE The data operation does not start until a software event occurs. You may create a software trigger by calling the niRFSG_SendSoftwareEdgeTrigger function.
NIRFSG_VAL_P2P_ENDPOINT_FULLNESS The data operation does not start until the endpoint reaches the threshold specified in the NIRFSG_ATTR_P2P_ENDPOINT_FULLNESS_START_TRIGGER_LEVEL attribute.
Default Value: NIRFSG_VAL_NONE

Supported Devices: PXIe-5644/5645/5646, PXIe-5654/5654 with PXIe-5696, PXI-5670/5671, PXIe-5672/5673/5673E, PXIe-5820/5830/5831/5832/5840/5841
