Solved!
Go to solution

Hello,

 

I am using a PCI 6221 with a SCXI box to control a system.

I want to send and receive a trigger signal from the system which I am using to another system, which is not a NI system, in order to start and stop sampling process at the same time on both systems.

Does anybody know how to do that in labview?

 

Thanks for your help in advance,

You can generate or recieve the trigger on any of the PFI lines. The you can use this PFI line as your start trigger & stop trigger.

Its up to you.Which ever you feel is better. If you are new to it then better use DAQ assistant & then convert that in to source code & learn the things.

If you still require any help, you can post the same.
