ViStatus niDCPower_CommitWithChannels(ViSession vi);

Applies previously configured settings to the specified channel(s). Calling this function moves the channel(s) from the Uncommitted state into the Committed state. After calling this function, modifying any attribute reverts the channel(s) to the Uncommitted state. Use the niDCPower_InitiateWithChannels function to transition to the Running state.

Name	Type	Description
vi	ViSession	Identifies a particular instrument session. vi is obtained from the niDCPower_InitializeWithIndependentChannels function.
channelName	ViConstString	Specifies the channel(s) to use. Specify the channel(s) using the form PXI1Slot3/0,PXI1Slot3/2-3,PXI1Slot4/2-3 or PXI1Slot3/0,PXI1Slot3/2:3,PXI1Slot4/2:3, where PXI1Slot3 and PXI1Slot4 are instrument resource names and 0, 2, and 3 are channels. If you pass "" for this control, all channels in the session are used.

Status	ViStatus	Reports the status of this operation. To obtain a text description of the status code, call the niDCPower_error_message function. To obtain additional information concerning the error condition, call the niDCPower_GetError function.

ViStatus niDCPower_Commit(ViSession vi);

This function is deprecated. Use niDCPower_CommitWithChannels instead.

Applies previously configured settings to the device. Calling this function moves the NI-DCPower session from the Uncommitted state into the Committed state. After calling this function, modifying any attribute reverts the NI-DCPower session to the Uncommitted state. Use the niDCPower_Initiate function to transition to the Running state. Refer to the Programming States topic in the NI DC Power Supplies and SMUs Help for details about the specific NI-DCPower software states.

ViStatus niDCPower_AbortWithChannels(ViSession vi);

Transitions the specified channel(s) from the Running state to the Uncommitted state. If a sequence is running, it is stopped.

Any configuration functions called after this function are not applied until the niDCPower_InitiateWithChannels function is called. If power output is enabled when you call this function, the output channel(s) remain in their current state and continue providing power.

Use the niDCPower_ConfigureOutputEnabled function or the niDCPower_ResetWithChannels function to disable power output on a per-channel basis.
