1: Port is configured for handshaking (latched) mode. mode = 1 is valid only for 
ports 0 and 1 of the DIO-24 and Lab and 1200 Series devices; for ports 2 and 3 of 
the AT-MIO-16D and AT-MIO-16DE-10; and for ports 0, 1, 3, 4, 6, 7, 9, and 10 
of the DIO-96.
dir indicates the direction, input or output, to which the port is to be configured. 
Range: 0 through 3.
0: Port is configured as an input port (default).
1: Port is configured as a standard output port.
2: Port is configured as a bidirectional port.
3: Port is configured as an output port, with wired-OR (open collector) 
output drivers.
Note mode must be set to handshaking in order to use bidirectional.
The following ports can be configured as bidirectional:
Note The only ports that can be configured as wired-OR output ports are DIO 6533 
ports 0 through 3.
Using This Function
DIG_Prt_Config configures the specified port according to the specified direction and 
handshake mode. Any configurations not supported by or invalid for the specified port return 
an error, and NI-DAQ does not change the port configuration. Information about the valid 
configuration of any digital I/O port is in the DAQ Hardware Overview Guide, and Chapter 3, 
Software Overview, of the NI-DAQ User Manual for PC Compatibles. 
For the DIO-24, AT-MIO-16D, DIO-32F, DIO 6533, DIO-96, and Lab and 1200 Series 
devices, 
DIG_Prt_Config returns an error if the specified port has been assigned to a group 
by a previous call to 
DIG_Grp_Config or DIG_SCAN_Setup. DIG_Prt_Config also 
returns an error for the DIO-32F and DIO 6533 if the specified port is port 4.
