getMaxItemSize()

BYTE isys::CDAQInfo::getMaxItemSize ( ) const

inline

Returns

maximum size of a DAQ item

Python example: daq_simple.py

getNumItems()

WORD isys::CDAQInfo::getNumItems

(

)

const

Deprecated:

in 9.21.2, always throws. Call CDAQController::getNumItems() instead.

Returns

currently configured number of DAQ items

getTick_ns()

DWORD isys::CDAQInfo::getTick_ns ( ) const

inline

Deprecated:

in 9.21.2, always returns 1000. Times returned by CDAQSample::getTime() are always in microseconds now, so this method is no longer needed.

Returns duration of DAQ clock tick in ns. All times returned by methods in CDAQ classes are returned as the number of DAQ clock ticks. Use value returned by this method to calculate real time:

 realTimeInSeconds = daqTime * getTick_ns() / 1'000'000'000.0
