Get All Connections of Switch

[Nadav_Chernin]

Hi all,

i'm using NI Switch.llb for controlling NI2590 Switch.

How can i get status of switch (what channels are connected)?

Nadav,

You can use niSwitch Get Relay Position to find if the status of a particular relay.

Hi Nadav,

An effective method when switching at a fast rate is to repetitively call niSwitch_CanConnect:
ViStatus niSwitch_CanConnect (ViSession vi, ViConstString channel1, ViConstString channel2, ViInt32* pathCapability);

When pathCapability returns NISWITCH_VAL_PATH_EXISTS, you know channel1 and channel2 are connected.

Let me know if you have further questions!
