//This is the example C Code incase someone wants to see
/*********************************************************************
*
* ANSI C Example program:
* ContThrmcplSamps-IntClk.c
*
* Example Category:
* AI
*
* Description:
* This example demonstrates how to make continuous, hardware-timed
* temperature measurement using a thermocouple.
*
* Instructions for Running:
* 1. Specify the Physical Channel where you have connected the
* thermocouple.
* 2. Enter the Minimum and Maximum temperature values in degrees C
* you expect to measure. A smaller range will allow a more
* accurate measurement.
* 3. Enter the scan rate at which you want to run the acquisition.
* 4. Specify the type of thermocouple you are using.
* 5. Thermocouple measurements require cold-junction compensation
* (CJC) to correctly scale them. Specify the source of your
* cold-junction compensation.
* 6. If your CJC source is "Internal", skip the rest of the steps.
* 7. If your CJC source is "Constant Value", specify the value
* (usually room temperature) in degrees C.
* 8. If your CJC source is "Channel", specify the CJC Channel
* name.
* 9. Specify the appropriate Auto Zero Mode. See your device's
* hardware manual to find out if your device supports this
* attribute.
*
* Steps:
* 1. Create a task.
* 2. Create a Thermocouple (TC) temperature measurement channel.
* 3. If your device supports Auto Zero Mode, set the AutoZero
* attribute for all channels in the task.
* 4. Call the Timing function to specify the hardware timing
* parameters. Use device's internal clock, continuous mode
* acquisition and the sample rate specified by the user.
* 5. Call the Start function to program and start the acquisition.
* 6. Read N samples and plot it. By default, the Read function
* reads all available samples, but you can specify how many
* samples to read at a time and the timeout value. Continue
* reading data until the stop button is pressed or an error
* occurs.
* 7. Call the Clear Task function to clear the Task.
* 8. Display an error if any.
*
* I/O Connections Overview:
* Connect your thermocouple to the terminals corresponding to the
* Physical Channel I/O Control value.
