FGen Streaming waveform example in C

[aquirdturtle]

How can I stream a waveform using FGen in C? There are no FGen examples for streaming waveforms, are there examples in any other places?

Specifically I want to do something like this, with a streamed waveform inside a script:

But this example is in labview and it would be useful to have an example in C, if only for how to do the streaming part.

Thanks!

Hi,

As for C, I don't think there is a FGen C example with streaming capabilities. You will have to write it. (I am assuming that you were able to run the C samples without streaming so you will only need to implement the streaming part)

However, under CVI examples, there is streaming examples. 

C:\Users\Public\Documents\National Instruments\CVI\Samples\niFgen\ArbitraryWaveformStreaming

Maybe you can compare the two CVI examples (Arbitrary Waveform w/o Streaming and w/ Streaming) to get some hints on how to implement streaming in C. The CVI example with Streaming has the part where you allocate and configure waveform. That should give you a place to start. 

I am no expert in C or CVI so can't give you much better advice than that. 

Hope it helps !
