Synchronization of 2 DAQ Cards

[Antony Wangsanata]

DAQ Cards being used:
- PCI-1200 (2 DIO lines used for transmitting digital signals)
- 6023E (2 DIO lines used for receiving digital signals)

Problem:
I would like to send and receive digital data continuously at the same rate.
I don't know if synchronization has to be done in software, or there can
be some sort of trigger/clock signal to use between the two DAQ Cards.
Please Help. Thanks

Try to look at RTSI. The PCI-1200 doesn't have that connector though. If you
want, you can try to do it by software. If you want high-speed
synchronisation, you HAVE to use RTSI, but then you have to look at other
cards. PLease call your local NI Office for more information... they won't
hurt you!
