Generating a digital waveform sequence

I am trying to generate two 8-bit digital sequences and send them as an output command over two channels simultaneously. Sequence length of 80 microsecs. 1 Bit length of 10 microsecs. The first sequence is high on all the 8-bits its role is to trigger the recording of the sequence on the second channel. The second sequence is the same in length but I would like to be able to control what this sequence is. I am trying to come up with a VI that would send these two sequences simultanously.
 
Any suggestions?

Hi

Some suggestions:

use 8 bit unsigned integer for you data type. an array of 2 x length of your sequence will suffice. you can configure the display in the control panel to show your number as a binary so you dun have to convert between binary and decimal numbers if you are using labview7.  you can also choose the vi (i cannot remember which now since i am not in my officce) in the waveform palette to display your digital array.

if you have any more details i could perhaps post a sample program when i get back into office on wednesday

Hi,

For us to be able to help you better, please describe what hardware you are referring to. Are you using one of NI's DAQ products, if so which one? If not, on what port do you want the data to be output?

Have Fun!
