I'm fine with phase and frequency as defined, but for the scaling it made me 
wonder.
For outvoltage0 channels the assumption the value is the peak voltage so if
we know what input to be modulated by the ramp generator can we express them
in volts (well milivolts) rather than as a scaling multiplier?

That seems to me like it fits better with the overall ABI.

Silly question perhaps but can work out how this related to millivolts/sec
That might make a more intuitive interface than scaling multiplier per sec
Perhaps the combination with offset makes this impossible though maybe that
could be a expressed as a voltage offset?  Afterall if the amplitude being
scaled is 5V then 5 * (offset + scale) = 5 * offset + 5 * scale
