Hello,
Is there a way to configure a buffered event counting with DAQMX for a PCMCIA 6036E. I understand that the DAQ-STC drivers do not allow for buffered Position measurement. I also need to sync with an analog input. Thanks.

Hello wade75,
The PCMCIA NI-6036E device is capable of buffered event counting when used with the NI DAQmx driver. The LabVIEW shipping example called “Count Digital Events-Buffered-Continuous-Ext Clk.vi” should suffice. Here is a VI Snippet representing the example code:
What do you mean by “sync with an analog input”? Please be as specific as possible so that we can help you out. Thanks!

Hi Wade75,
I used the “Count Digital Events-Buffered-Continuous Ext Clock.vi” shipping example as a template for the VI below. It triggers an acquisition on the counter line you specify when an analog signal reaches a specified level. You could combine this example with one of the simple continuous analog acquisition examples and have a VI that acquires buffered AI samples, and acquires counter signals that are triggered off of the AI level. Check it out below:
