Writing Custom Applications
Stream Tab
The two buttons in the button bar start
and stop data streaming. Press the
running man button to start streaming
data. Press the stop button to stop
streaming, unless the stream has
stopped itself. When streaming, the
status bar data is collected and
displayed. This includes a count of the
data blocks received, the data rate, the
measured temperature of the board
logic, and the digital I/O value.
The Wave Example
The Wave example in the software distribution demonstrates output streaming. It will only be included if the board supports
streaming out to a DAC or similar device or devices.
In many ways the Wave example is similar to the Snap example. Differences are highlighted in this section.
Stream Initialization
Setup of the stream is much like the Snap example. We have similar error checking code and rate guarding.
