Requesting help with timing of data acquisition

The part of the code that I need help with consists of two main sections. The two sections are inside the same frame of a flat sequence structure. The bottom part is responsible for creating a pulse from NI-9263. 

The top part starts data acqusition for Voltage and temperature. The current set up causes the data acquisition to start simultaneously with the Pulse creation. I want to add a delay between the time when the pulse first starts and when data acquisition begins. For example, if I create a pulse for 150 seconds, I want to start the data acquisition at 100seconds so I will be taking data for 50 seconds instead of 150.  Any suggestions on how to time the data acqusition? 

 

Here's a list of the National instruments hardware  at my disposal: 

 

1. c-DAQ 9174

2. NI-9205

3. NI-9211

4. NI-9263

 

Please check the attached file for more information. 

Thanks!

Can you discard the data which is not needed ?

 

For example, start taking data using generated pulse as start trigger.

You will take 150 points (a sample per 1sec) and discard 100 points from first taking.

As a result, you can get only 50 points data.
