Hardware Timing

[PJM]

I am using an AT-MIO board for my data acquisition. I want to use the timing
in the DAQ-STC hardware, however, the manuals do not help that much. I am
confused if the timing is considered analog output or something else. Also,
what sort of VIs will I need to access this timing information.

thanks

The DAQ-STC is a timing chip that has 2 counters on it. You can look at the
example apps in the \Examples\DAQ\Counter\daqstc.llb (or something
like that). You use counters for timing related digital IO, such as pulse
generation, pulse counting, pulse train generation, etc. The daq-stc chip
can do these tasks faster than the digital IO port on your DAQ card. The
new TIO chip can even decode a quadrature encoder signal.
