BoardConfig.GetDACForceSense() method

Returns the remote sensing state of an analog output channel.

Member of the cBoardConfig class. Accessible from the MccBoard.BoardConfig property.

Function Prototype

VB .NET

Public Function SetDACForceSense(chan As Integer, ByRef configVal As Integer) As MccDaq.ErrorInfo

C# .NET

public MccDaq.ErrorInfo SetDACForceSense(int chan, out int configVal)

Parameters

chan

The analog output channel number.

configVal

The remote sensing state; 0 = disabled, and 1 = enabled.

Returns

• An ErrorInfo object that indicates the status of the operation.

Remote sensing

The remote sensing feature compensates for the voltage drop error that occurs in applications where the analog outputs on a device are connected to its load through a long wire or cable type interconnect.

The remote sensing feature utilizes the force and sense output terminals on a supported device. Refer to the device hardware manual for more information.
