agb220xa_openCard

This function will disconnect all input ports from all output ports for the specified card.

If bias mode is ON, the input bias port is connected to all bias enabled output ports.

If ground mode is ON, the input ground port is connected to all ground enabled input ports and output ports.

Syntax	ViStatus _VI_FUNC agb220xa_openCard(ViSession vi, ViInt16 open_cardno);
Parameters	vi	Instrument handle returned from agb220xa_init( ).
	open_cardno	Card number. 1 (card 1), 2 (card 2), 3 (card 3), 4 (card 4), or 5
		(all card) in the normal configuration mode, or 0 (all card in the
		auto configuration mode). For the configuration mode, see
		agb220xa_func.

agb220xa_openList

This function will disconnect the input ports from the output ports specified by the channel list.

The parameter “openchan_list” is an array of integers with each integer representing one channel. The last number of the “openchan_list” should be “0” (numeric zero) to identify the end of the list. The maximum number of channels that can be specified by the list is 100.

Syntax	ViStatus _VI_FUNC agb220xa_openList(ViSession vi,
	ViInt32_VI_FAR openchan_list[ ] );
Parameters	vi	Instrument handle returned from agb220xa_init( ).

openchan_list[ ] Channel numbers to disconnect. 5 digits integer. ABCDE. where A: card number, BC: input port number, DE: output port number. Top zero(s) can be ignored. For example, if A=0, BC=01, and DE=01, channel number should be 101 instead of 00101.
