closing Instrument handles

If I use NI-Switch to get an instrument handle and set a bunch of switches, do I need to keep track of it like a reference with a FGV or something in order to close it? Or if I initialize again to close it, is it the same one? Hope that makes sense.

Can you clarify that a little? You should not reinitialize a session that is already open, so you should be keeping track of your session info in some form in order to close it. In addition, not closing a session can cause memory leaks. I have included a link to one of the NI Switch help documents that may help you get started.

I acutaully realized I can close it and the switches stay where they are, which makes sense I guess.
