LibTiePie  0.6.1
Library for interfacing TiePie engineering instruments

Description

Functions to control the clock output type.

Oscilloscopes can support supplying a clock output signal, use ScpGetClockOutputs() to determine the available clock outputs for an oscilloscope.

When an oscilloscope supports selecting a clock output signal, refer to the instrument manual for the location of the clock output and the specifications of the clock output signal.

Depending on the instrument, a clock output can support multiple output frequencies. Use ScpGetClockSourceFrequencies() to determine which frequencies are supported.

By default the clock output is disabled (CO_DISABLED).

uint32_t ScpGetClockOutputFrequencies ( LibTiePieHandle_t  hDevice,
double *  pList,
uint32_t  dwLength 
)

Get an array with the supported clock output frequencies of the specified oscilloscope.

The caller must assure that enough memory is allocated. This function is only available when the clock output is set to CO_FIXED.

Parameters
[in]hDeviceA device handle identifying the oscilloscope.
[out]pListA pointer to an array for the clock output frequencies, or NULL.
[in]dwLengthThe number of elements in the array.
Returns
Total number of supported clock output frequencies, or 0 when unsuccessful.
Status values
NOT_SUPPORTED The oscilloscope does not support clock output or the clock output is not set to CO_FIXED.
INVALID_HANDLE The handle is not a valid oscilloscope handle.
OBJECT_GONE The object indicated by the handle is no longer available.
LIBRARY_NOT_INITIALIZEDThe library is not initialized, see LibInit().
SUCCESS The function executed successfully.
Example
uint32_t dwLength = ScpGetClockOutputFrequencies( hDevice , NULL , 0 );
double* pFrequencies = malloc( sizeof( double ) * dwLength );
dwLength = ScpGetClockOutputFrequencies( hDevice , pFrequencies , dwLength );
for( i = 0 ; i < dwLength ; i++ )
{
printf( "%f\n" , pFrequencies[ i ] );
}
free( pFrequencies );
