Using 2 DAQ's using one PC

[Prasanth_Thangavel]

Hi all,

Our project requires using 2 DAQ's (say for example ni 6008 & 9171) simultanesouly using one PC. In that case, is it possible to program in LabVIEW so that data from both the DAQ's are acquired & processed by single PCsimultaneously.

Looking forward from you guys.

Thanks in advance

Prasanth

The 6008 would seem to be a very poor choice. The USB connection has no method for synchronization. Why don't you discuss your specific requirements with your local sales engineer? You'll want your devices in a common chassis or internal to the pc and connected with a RTSI cable.
