Routing of counter output

Solved!
Go to solution

Using LabVIEW 2009,  I'd like to route the output of ctr0 to several PFIs. I've reviewed many of the posts, but I'm still a little confused on how to route to multiple outputs.

 

It seems there are three possibilities - DAQmx Connect Terminals, DAQmx Export Signal, and DAQmx Channel property node.

 

Is it possible to route a ctr0 pulse to multiple outputs? If so, which of these options is best? (I assume I would make multiple calls to the Connect Terminals or Export Signal) Is there a limit to the # of outputs I can drive with a ctr0 signal?

 

Thanks.

Hi rls,

 

The easiest way to accomplish this is to use the DAQmx Export Signal VI.  You can route the signal to multiple routes by selecting to Browse... rather than selecting a single PFI line and then CTRL+Click on the routes to be made.  I was able to do this on a PCI 6251 M-series multifunction card without any issues.

 

Best,
