hi there
well, there a several ways to do this. the problem with the software - timestamps is the minimal resolution of 1ms. i'd suggest:
- wire a copy of the digital pulse train to an analog input channel
- wire a copy of the frequency converter to another analog input channel
- create an analog input task with the two channels (the sampling rate defines the timing resolution,make sure to acquire enough samples to see the response signal)
- start this task
- send the digital pulse train
to optimize your acquisition you can use another copy of the digital pulse train as a start trigger for your analog acquisition.
-> then you'll see the digital pulse train on one of the analog channels and the frequency output on the other one. both channels have the same time axis with a resolution defined by your sampling rate (~us depending on your hardware). then you can analyze the data.
search the example finder for examples of how to create tasks and triggers.

yeah, that's surely correct!
but make sure that the device is stable and that the delay dosn't depend from the pulse train.
