Hi,
I have been using a trigger DAQmx code just fine for a while, as it currently stands it is using a voltage signal from a laser distance sensor to trigger data collection (using a 9205 module).
I am looking to using a current sensor to trigger the data collection instead of the laser (on a 9203 module) but when I change the "source" constant on my Trigger VI (Reference Analog Edge) to pull the data from the current sensor it gives me the following error:
Error -200265 occurred at DAQmx Start Task.vi:7220001
Possible reason(s):
An attempt has been made to use an invalid analog trigger source.
Ensure that the trigger source you specify matches the name of the virtual channel in the task or matches the name of a non-scannable terminal that the device can use as an analog trigger source.
Property: Ref.AnlgEdge.Src
Corresponding Value: Trigger
Valid Choices: LaserTrigger
Device: cDAQ1
Task Name: _unnamedTask<18>
The valid choice it gives is the old laser trigger source that is still present in the VI.
Thank you,
