NiScope 2.1.4 and niScope 2.5

Question

After ungrading my niScope from 2.1.4 to 2.5 along with other new requirements, I notice my code that synchronizing 5 PXI5112s board stops with this error: Warning 0x3FFA4006 occured-The PLL is not locked. The code works fine with version 2.1.4. I use RTSI clock to sync the 10MHz clock line, RTSI_1 as the sync pulse, and RTSI_0 as the digital trigger source from master to other 4 slave boards. Also, the example code that comes with 2.5 which uses the new scope class (CNiScope) works fine, but the code that comes with the previous version ( uses the niScope_XXXXX functions ) will fails with the above error msg. My question is, is this a new warning msg that NI added in its new version? Or am I missing something in the configuration steps
in the new niScope version? Thanks

Answer 1

That explains a lot. Thanks. I mostly followed the code sample taken out of the 5112Sync example's configureBoard function. If you look at the code (came with 2.1.4, not 2.5), you'll get an idea how I initiate the synchronization. I think I will just use the PXI_CLOCK line for now.
Both sample codes(2.1.4 and 2.5) use the RTSI clock line. When compiled under the new niScope version, the one(2.1.4) with the niScope_XXXXX functions will generate the warning msg while the new one with the new CNiScope class will not. Why? Did you do something with in the class to ignore this non-fatal error?
I've got another question - when you route the RTSI_CLOCK, or the PXI_CLOCK for that matter, what does the third paramete
r, the clockSyncPulseSource, in niScope_configureClock do? I've always thought the first parameter is the PLL source for synchronization.
Again, thanks for the response.
