Signal transfer for ni usb 6008

[usb 6008]

I am trying to send signals through NIUSB 6008 to an instruments.

I have a VI which might do the same but i am not sure as the VI has a browse switch (tasks/ ports being used), where i can select the ports (digital ports) of the NI USB. I am able to select the signals but when i run the VI the signals dont get treansferred through the NIUSB 6008.

 I am sure that the hardware connections are connected properly as i have tested the NIUSB 6008 by self testing the device and also through test panels provided in the measurement and automation software.

I understand that it might be simple but i am new to Labview and i am still learning.

Thank you all

Dee

Hi Dee,

What you have attached is 'DAQmx control task' and not a code for reading /writing to digital lines

choose a suitable example VI for AI,AO, DIO and counter operations from Examples shipped with labview, read documentation of each and use it.

Regards

Dev

Hi Dee,

Good examples to look at in LabView Example Finder are: Hardware Input and Output >> DAQmx >> Digital Generation >> Write Digital Port.vi or Hardware Input and Output >> DAQmx >> Digital Measurements >> Read Digital Port.vi
