Custom Command

Call a custom command in the LINX firmware. You must add the custom command to the LINX firmware before you are able to call it using this VI. Use this VI to access advanced functionality that must execute on the device.

The timeout value indicates how long LabVIEW will wait for the custom command to complete. Set this value slightly higher than the expected time required for the custom function to complete. This VI will wait up to the time specified in timeout, and will rseturn as soon as the function is complete.
