Description
This application demonstrates how to use DAQmx to create multiple PWM channels and have runtime-control over Frequency and/or Duty Cycle.
 
Steps to implement or execute code
To implement this example:
  1. Set the physical channel of the counter
  2. Determine the frequency
  3. Run the VI
  4. (Optional) Turn on the Highlight Execution to see the flow of the VI

To execute this example:

  1. Install the required software.
  2. Connect the DAQ hardware that supports the Counter features
  3. Confirm the connection with the MAX with TestPanel
  4. Open the VI and refer the Implement Steps


Requirements
Software
LabVIEW 2012 or compatible
NI-DAQmx 16.0 or compatible

Hardware
