Hello Alan,

You should be able to use the Counter - Count Edges.vi example from LabVIEW. Just go to Help » Find Examples... and when the Example Finder loads, expand Hardware Input and Output » DAQmx » Counter Input and you'll find the example there.

Select the device's counter in the Counter control and the PFI you connected the signal to in Input Terminal. You can either count rising or falling edges after selecting one in Active Edge, but not both.

Hope it helps!
