I've emailed PJM about this problem, and using the millisecond timer to
show elapsed time works better than using a counter. He wanted to find
the elapsed time from the beginning of an acquisition, and terminate the
acquisition after a user-specified amount of time. He was told to use
the counter for this, but couldn't get it to work.
Upon emailing the VI to me, it was obvious that using the millisecond
timer, for his application, was a better solution given the resolution
of the time he wanted. Therefore, he used it.
