Pulse generation NI9401

[Xiao@Gemini]

Hello, everyone, I'm new to LabVIEW. I would like to use NI 9401 module in the cDAQ 9178 to generate a 160Hz pulse to trigger my multiplexer (Campbell scientific AM16/32B), and using NI 9239 to acquire the sensor signals. Can anyone give some idea how to implement this? Thanks in advance.

Hi Xiao,

have you tried an example VI on DAQmx/Digital Output/Counters?

There surely is a VI explaining how to use CO (Counter Output) tasks…

I'm looking into the counter-continuous output.VI. I'm trying to generate a 160Hz 5V pulse to control the relay. Is this a good example to start? Thank you very much.
