Grouping counters in this manner on an E Series card is not supported by the
driver for this hardware and should generate an error. If you're not getting an
error, then you're probably not being diligent in wiring your error inputs and
outputs through to an error handler VI! Remembering to do this can save hours of
debugging time.
There are some ways to get around the problem; check out this KnowledgeBase entry
