• NI-FGEN

  • Changed

    • num_channels attribute renamed to channel_count - now consistent with other drivers
    • send_software_edge_trigger() no longer takes any parameters.
      • To send a start software trigger, call it on the session directly:
        python session.send_software_edge_trigger()
