Timed Loop not Executing

[ooyeniyi]

My timed loop fails to execute, despite the absence of errors in the code. I need a third eye to help figure out what I might be doing wrong here. thanks.

Looks like it's wrapped in a stacked sequence, so it's hard to say. Maybe it is not getting to this frame of the sequence? Can you attach the full VI?

[ooyeniyi]

Thanks Gregory. The sequence runs until it gets to the Timed Loop, where it seems to freeze without executing nor throwing errors

I am not familiar with timed loops, and I'm not sure what advantage it gives you here. But, I would guess it is because your timer source is not sending any triggers. If I disconnect the timer source and just let it go to the standard 1kHz clock, it seems like the loop is running.

thanks Gregory, it works. However, when I include the Fire Software Trigger Timing Source, I get an Error -805. Any thoughts on fixing this?

Hi ooyeniyi,

did you read the error explanation?

Does your hardware even support such timing triggers?

Why do you want to create, init, execute and kill DAQmx tasks in a tightly timed loop?
