int32 DAQmxWriteAnalogF64 (TaskHandle taskHandle, int32 numSampsPerChan, bool32 autoStart, float64 timeout, bool32 dataLayout, float64 writeArray[], int32 *sampsPerChanWritten, bool32 *reserved);

Writes multiple floating-point samples to a task that contains one or more analog output channels.

Note If you configured timing for your task, your write is considered a buffered write. Buffered writes require a minimum buffer size of 2 samples. If you do not configure the buffer size using DAQmxCfgOutputBuffer, NI-DAQmx automatically configures the buffer when you configure sample timing. If you attempt to write one sample for a buffered write without configuring the buffer, you will receive an error.

Input
Name	Type	Description
taskHandle	TaskHandle	The task to write samples to.
numSampsPerChan	int32	The number of samples, per channel, to write. You must pass in a value of 0 or more in order for the sample to write. If you pass a negative number, this function returns an error.
autoStart	bool32	Specifies whether or not this function automatically starts the task if you do not start it.
timeout	float64	The amount of time, in seconds, to wait for this function to write all the samples. To specify an infinite wait, pass -1 (DAQmx_Val_WaitInfinitely).
