digital input on daqPad-6020E

[Iain T. Johnstone]

I'm trying to do a continuous read of digital inputs with the
DAQPad-6020E, running LabVIEW 6.0, but I keep getting an error number
-10403, "Digital Buffer Config". Any ideas how to fix this?

Cheers and thanks,
Tom

Hello;

The digital buffer config.vi can only be used with boards that allow strobed digital I/O operations (such as the 653x family).

That board of yours can only perform Software timed digital operations. So, you will need to use the Easy Digital I/O VIs.

A good start point for you is the Labview shipping examples at Search Examples->I/O Interfaces->Data Acquisition->Digital Input and Output. Get the ones for E-series board.
Hope this helps.
