Possible to Set Default Termination on NI-XNET Device?

[LVB]

Is there a way to change termination for an interface to be enabled by default?  I would prefer to change this once for the device rather than having to add the property node for every VI that creates a NI-XNET session.

Hi LVB,

Unfortunately, the only way to change the termination is to use the property node and there is no way to default for a certain device. You could wire a control to the property node and set the control to have a default value but this still requires you to place a property node.

How does the physical termination operate relative to stopping and releasing the XNET session?  I am aware that the termination is applied upon starting the XNETsession.  If I start then stop a Frame Input Stream session, will the termination resistance persist upon stopping?  What about clearing the XNET Frame Input Session?

It would be nice to set a default termination for the card in MAX.  I'll add a feature request to the idea exchange.

Thanks,

Brian

When you clear the last session, termination is disabled.

So it seems I can "simulate" a default termination by first opening a Frame Input Stream Session with the desired termination.  I can then start and immediately stop that session (but not clear) to apply the termination.  Then the termination will be applied to all subsequent sessions until I clear ALL sessions...

This seems like a better option than adding the property to every XNET session.  However, it still does not address the limitation of default termination when NI-XNET sessions are not running.

Is there any way to have termination persist when an NI-XNET session is not running?

Does any body know how to enable or  disable this property from a c# aplication using the Nican.h  a don't know how to do it I can see only these properties :

could you help me?
