Count Pulses in Labview without a counter function

[GregFlynn]

Hi All

Is it possible to count input pulses without a counter function?

I am using a Mydaq which only has one counter and it only counts up

If I can count without a counter function, I can achieve all I need to achieve.

I would need to be able to count up and down do

Please advise if this is possible and if so, how.....

Regards

Greg

I assume he found myDAQ's counter an count in both directions. Here is some more information about it: How Do I Use the NI myDAQ Counter?

Does this answer your question?

Thank you for the reply but my query was if i can use other digital inputs as counters... As my daq has only one counter and i need to count pulses for 5 different inputs...

I am looking for solution in LabVIEW...

Hi rishavpreet,

can myDAQ read DI signals with hardware timing?

Then set a sample rate large enough for your pulse signals, read those DI signals and count the pulses on your own from those digital waveforms…

Hi GerdW

Thank you,

Solved it using Boolean PtbyPt block.😊
