problems with "count event and time Vi"

[Maruthi]

I am using PCI 6025E card and a SCB 100 connector block for my application. I used count events and time vi in order to count the TTL pulses generated from the shaft encoder. I connected the channel from the shaft encoder to the counter terminal of the count events and time vi to get the count. But when ever I run my program, I get an NI 10001 CTR config error, saying that the ordering of the input string is not as expected. I have configured the counter on the vi and am still getting the error. Can't I wire the channel to the counter terminal of the VI?? If not, How can I count the pulses from the shaft encoder??

Hi!
the counter input of the Count Events or Time.vi is a string that specifies which counter you want to use; your board has 2 counters, counter 0 and counter 1; the counter input only accepts 0 or 1.
Good luck,
