Need to generate single point output on one channel and waveform generation on other

Hi,
I need to do a single point update on DAC0OUT of PCI6052E and a waveform generation on DAC1OUT.what's the best way to accomplish this ?

Do waveform generation on both, just output the same value on DAC0OUT.

Doug,
I dont want to do waveform generation on both.On DAC1OUT I need to set the DC level on the channel after every 30 iterations/triggers. On DAC0OUT I generate a pulse of 10 mS at every iteration/trigger.
what is the best way to handle this ?
thanks,
Shiv

These two outputs share the same update clock. You need to supply a buffer for both outputs. Here is what I would try. Every time you update DAC0OUT data, also update DAC1OUT. The difference is the data you output for DAC1OUT will only change once for every 30 buffer updates.
