generate clocked digital waveform

[mperdue]

I'm using a USB-6221.  I need to generate a waveform synchronized to an external clock.  I need to generate it once when a button is pushed.  The data is in the form of an integer, 8 bits.  So if the integer is 12 I want to generate 00110000 on one output channel synced to a clock input on another channel.  I've gone through the examples but I couldn't find how to specify the value of the waveform.  Any help would be appreciated!

Nevermind.  I figured out a way to do this.

Hi,

Please post your solution.  It benefits others who view this thread and we can verify if it is the best way to do it.

I started with the Example in the example finder "Write Dig Chan-Ext Clk.vi".  That creates a square wave on 8 channels.  I changed it to just one channel and replaced the square wave (basically counter output) to my 8-bit value.  See the attached GIFs.  The first is my modified "Write Dig Chan" program and the second is the "Create Dig Waveform" SubVI where I read in the 8-bit number I want to output on the channel.
