WINDAQ Active X Control

Description:

Returns the positive full scale limit (as specified by the WinDaq Acquisition software) for a specified channel in calibrated engineering units (use GetUnit to return the engineering units).

The channel is the logical channel in the index on the channel list, not the physical channel. For example, if the channel list is 1, 5, 8, 9, 10, and you want the positive full scale limit of channel 8, you would set the channel argument of GetMaxLimit to 2. If you want the positive full scale limit of channel 1, you would set the channel argument of GetMaxLimit to 0.

Syntax:

variable=WinDaq1.GetMaxLimit(Channel) (where Channel is the logical channel in the index on the channel list)

Variable:

Double

Example:

Private Sub Stop_Click()

WinDaq1. Stop

End Sub

Private Sub Start_Click()

WinDaq1. EventLevel = 10

WinDaq1. Start

End Sub

Private Sub WinDaq1_ NewData(ByVal Count As Integer)

DQChart1. Chart (WinDaq1. GetDataStream(FormatBinary))

'this gets information associated with the first channel

Label1.Caption = "The positive full scale limit is " & WinDaq1.GetMaxLimit(0)

End Sub
