VXIplug&play Syntax

#include "age1439".h

ViStatus age1439_vcxo(ViSession id, ViInt16 vcxoState);
ViStatus age1439_vcxo_get(ViSession
id, ViPInt16 vcxoStatePtr);

Note

This command should be used only for specialized custom clock requirements. Most useful clock
setups can be supplied by

age1439_clock_setup

.

Description

This function selects whether the internal clock source is turned on or off.

Note

This function is ignored in IF path since the Agilent E1439D does not run in IF mode if the
VCXO is turned off. If you switch from baseband to IF path the VCXO turns on; it remains on if
you switch back to baseband.

Parameters

id

is the VXI instrument session pointer returned by the age1439_init function.

vcxoState

AGE1439_VCXO_OFF

specifies that the internal clock source is turned off.

AGE1439_VCXO_ON

that the internal source is turned on.

vcxoStatePtr

Returns a pointer to the actual state of the VCXO.

Return Value

AGE1439_SUCCESS indicates that a function was successful.

Values other than AGE1439_SUCCESS indicate an error condition or other important status
condition. To determine the error message, pass the return value to

“age1439_error_message” on
