AI Sample freq. and Samples / Chan

[MogaRaghu]

Using LV7.1 with Win_XP.

In a DAS code, using the Digital Edge Counter for firing a Timed Loop. ( Refer the enclosed diagram )

Intially I was acquiring only one channel and required a Timed loop with 50ms timing. Hence configured the Sampling Freq at 200Hz ( 5 ms period ) and took 10 Samples / Chan. I thus got exactly 5ms x 10 = 50ms.

Later I acquired 5 channels @ the same 200 Hz and 10 Samples / Ch. To my surprise I got the same 50ms Timed loop triggers. I don't think I am quite clear whats happening ? The number of channels that I acquire does not seem to alter the 50ms triggers.

Thanks for any clarifications on above.

Pulled out this VI from the disk ( must have got it from the forums earlier ) and that had answers to all my doubts !!
