Synchronize Two NI 6133s Using Warp Mode Using LabVIEW with NI DAQmx

[Chris_W.]

Overview
This example VI was written to show the easiest way to synchronize two PXI S series devices that are using Warp Mode.

Description
For this example there is a master device and a slave device. The master device generates the clock using an onboard counter, or if selected, receives an external clock signal, and routes the clock along the PXI backplane. With slight modifications to the block diagram this VI could be used with PCI devices sharing a clock along a configured RTSI cable.

Requirements

Software：

• LabVIEW 2012 (or compatible)
• NI DAQmx 12.0 (or compatible)
• NI VISA 4.0(or compatible)

Hardware：

• LabVIEW 2012 (or compatible)
• NI DAQ 12.0 (or compatible)

Steps to Implement or Execute Code

1. Select the VISA Resource Name of each of the instruments.
2. Select the DAQmx physical channels of each device.
3. Select whether to use the onboard counter of the master device or to use PFI 0 of the master device.
4. Specify the sample rate.
5. Run the VI.
