Synchronized Digital output (internal clock) NI-6259

[EEsRULEtheWORLD]

Hey,

With your device, you will not be able to use the AO sample clock and the AI sample clock with some of the digital lines used by the same port.  You would have to use the same sample clock source for both tasks.

You can use a counter to generate the signal, and depending on the turn-on voltage that your switch requires, it may be the preferred method for your application.  You can use a Counter Output Pulse Time task to specify the high and low times of your signal.  If you are using LabVIEW, check out the Gen Dig Pulse Train VIs located in the NI Example Finder (Hardware Input and Output»DAQmx»Generating Digital Pulses).  This will give you an idea of how to set up your counters to generate digital pulses.
