LabVIEW and the SCXI Channel String
For LabVIEW, and Visual Basic, the channel string determines the
sequence in which SCXI channels are scanned. In LabVIEW, an array of
these channel strings configures multiple modules in the scan list. When the
application program runs, the channel string is used for programming the
channel information into the SCXI system. The format of the channel string
is as follows:

is as follows:

obx is the onboard E Series DAQ device channel, with x representing
a particular channel where the multiplexed channels are sent. This
value is 0 for DAQ channel 0 in a single-chassis system. In a
multichassis or remote chassis system, however, the E Series DAQ
device channel x corresponds to chassis number n–1, where DAQ
device channel x is used for scanning the nth chassis in the system.

specifier is optional and causes the gains on the module and E Series
DAQ device to be automatically set to fit the input limits parameter. When this specifier is
omitted, the default gain on the E Series DAQ device, usually the lowest gain, is used, but
the SCXI-1125 gain is adjusted to fit the input limits.
