160 EX1629 Command Set
vtex1629_get_half_bridge_lead_wire_desensitization
FUNCTION PROTOTYPE
ViStatus vtex1629_get_half_bridge_lead_wire_desensitization (ViSession vi, ViInt32 channel, ViPReal64 factor);
FUNCTION PARAMETERS
vi = contains a session handle to the instrument. This handle is obtained by the function and remains valid until the
session is closed.
channel = an integer input value that specifies the channel for which the gage factor will be returned. Valid input
values: 0 to 47.
factor = returned factor value for the specified channel.
DATA ITEM RESET VALUE
Not applicable to this function.
DESCRIPTION
This function queries and returns the lead wire desensitization factor for the specified channel. The factor parameter
is defined as follows:
gage
lead
R
R
factor 1
where R
lead
represents the resistance of the lead and R
gage
is the resistance of the strain gage.
EXAMPLE
ViSession instrumentHandle;
ViInt32 channel = 5;
ViReal64 factorVal = 0;
status = vtex1629_get_half_bridge_lead_wire_desensitization(instrumentHandle,
channel,
&factorVal);
