The '''Call By Reference''' Node is used to call VIs with a specified connector pane, but without to exactly specify the VI ''at edit time''. It can be used to provide a plug-in architecture within an application, where the actual plug-in can be choosen ''at runtime''. The number of and the specific plug-ins can be changed at any time after the calling application has been finished.<br />
The [[VI Reference]] used with Call By Reference must be a strictly typed reference, which can be obtained using the Open VI Reference Node.<br />
Aside of the [[VI Reference]] and the [[Error Cluster]] flow-through connectors, there is a specific connector pane that relates to the strictly typed VI Reference, both with the connector pane and with their data types. You can wire to these terminals just as you would to a normal subVI. <br /><br />
