NI PXI-5422 Calibration Procedure
c.
Call 
niFgen_InitiateGeneration
 (niFgen Initiate 
Generation VI) to initiate the waveform generation using 
the following parameter:
vi: The session handle returned from 
niFgen_InitExtCal
d.
Measure the frequency of the generated waveform. This value is 
the 
measured frequency
.
14. Call 
niFgen_AbortGeneration
 (niFgen Abort Generation VI) to 
abort the waveform generation using the following parameter:
vi: The session handle returned from 
niFgen_InitExtCal
 
Adjusting the Calibration ADC
The NI PXI-5422 has an onboard calibration ADC that is used during 
self-calibration. Adjusting the calibration ADC involves characterizing the 
gain and offset associated with this ADC so that performing self-calibration 
results in an accurately calibrated device.
1.

2.
Call 
niFgen_WriteBinary16AnalogStaticValue
 (niFgen Write
