Trying to use the counters on DAQcard500. None of the examples I have work with the 8253/8254 counters. Need to measure frequency of pulse train. Can anybody help with examples?
I had a problem with this some time ago and was assured that the latest version of NI DAQ was the solution. I found a description in the NI knowledge base for the DAQ700 that was identical but nothing under DAQ500. I was running Labview 4.0 Joe Varga wrote in message <383062b9@newsgroups.ni.com>... > >Trying to use the counters on DAQcard500. None of the examples I have work >with the 8253/8254 counters.

Joe, You can find examples that demonstrate how to measure a pulse train frequency in LabVIEW's Examples directory at LabVIEW/Examples/DAQ/Counters. The examples are broken down into specific counter/timer chips, i.e. 8253, AM9513, DAQ-STC, or NI-TIO.
