ChD works, but ChDx doesn't?

[bwillis88]

I wish to create a channel with 10 numbers. The following code will
not fill my channel with numbers:

''''begin code''''
call DataDelAll(1)
call RootPropSet("Name","MyChannel")
Call ChnAlloc("Frequency",10,,DATATYPEFLOAT64)
CHDX(1,CNo("Frequency")) = 2.0
CHDX(2,CNo("Frequency")) = 2.1
CHDX(3,CNo("Frequency")) = 2.2
CHDX(4,CNo("Frequency")) = 2.3
CHDX(5,CNo("Frequency")) = 2.4
CHDX(6,CNo("Frequency")) = 2.5
CHDX(7,CNo("Frequency")) = 2.6
CHDX(8,CNo("Frequency")) = 2.7
CHDX(9,CNo("Frequency")) = 2.8
CHDX(10,CNo("Frequency")) = 2.9

But, if I replace CHDX with CHD, the channel will populate correctly.
I wish to use CHDX so my program will run faster.

Thanks

ChnAlloc doesn't set the actual channel length, only the maximum channel length. As a result, when you try to populate your channel, DIAdem thinks the channel length is 0 and therefore doesn't put the values into your channel.

Add the following line to your code after the ChnAlloc command to fix this:


CL("Frequency")=10


CL is the variable that contains the actual channel length of a channel.


Hope that helps,
