EX1629 Command Set 275
vtex1629_set_poisson_ratio
FUNCTION PROTOTYPE
ViStatus vtex1629_set_poisson_ratio (ViSession vi, ViInt32 _VI_FAR channels[], ViInt32 numberOfChannels,
ViReal64 poissonRatio);
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.
channels = an input integer array containing a list of channel numbers for which the Poisson ratio will be set. Valid
input values: 0 to 47.
numberOfChannels = the size of the channels list. Valid input values: 1 to 48.
poissonRatio = a real input value indicating the Poisson ratio to be set for all the given channels.
DATA ITEM RESET VALUE
poissonRatio = 0.300000
DESCRIPTION
This function sets the Poisson ratio for a list of channels. This is one of the parameters used in some strain gage EU
conversion calculations.
EXAMPLE
ViSession instrumentHandle;
ViStatus status;
ViInt32 channels[] = {0,1,2,3};
…
status = vtex1629_set_poisson_ratio(instrumentHandle, channels, 4, 0.301);
