pi40iv_self_test

The ViSession handle that you obtain from the pi40iv_init or pi40iv_InitWithOptions function.  The handle identifies a particular instrument session.
Default Value:  None

This control contains the value returned from the instrument self test.  Zero means success.  For any other code, see the device's operator's manual.
Self-Test Code    Description
---------------------------------------
0              Passed self test
1              Self test failed

Returns the self-test response string from the instrument. See the device's operation manual for an explanation of the string's contents.
You must pass a ViChar array with at least 256 bytes.

Returns the status code of this operation.  The status code  either indicates success or describes an error or warning condition.  You examine the status code from each call to an instrument driver function to determine if an error occurred.
To obtain a text description of the status code, call the pi40iv_error_message function.  To obtain additional information about the error condition, call the pi40iv_GetErrorInfo function.  To clear the error information from the driver, call the pi40iv_ClearErrorInfo function.
The general meaning of the status code is as follows:
Value                  Meaning
-------------------------------
0                      Success
Positive Values        Warnings
Negative Values        Errors
This driver defines the following status codes:

This instrument driver also returns errors and warnings defined by other sources.  The following table defines the ranges of additional status codes that this driver can return.  The table lists the different include files that contain the defined constants for the particular status codes:
