I am using labview to control a PCI-6110E card.
What I am trying to do is time an event with
respect to the start of the analog output. The
only way I've come up with to do it is to route
the UPDATE clock to the input of GPCTR0 and then
gate GPCTR0 with an analog trigger and use that
to write the counter value to a buffer each time
it happens.
I have the following problems:
I cannot make ATCOUT gate GPCTR0! I cannot
specify it with the counter setattributes vi, but I did find it in the AM9513 compatibility
VIs. So once I set that up, I still don't see
the analog trigger going off (I route the
GPCTR0_GATE signal to PFI9 and watch to see if
my analog input is doing what it should). Ideas?
My secon
d question is how can I use the internal 20 MHz clock to do the same thing,
right now the UPDATE is running at 4 MHz, which
doesn't give me the maximal timing precision I
need but I couldn't figure out how to use a
start trigger on a timer, but also use an
external gate signal to have it read out.
Thanks for your time,
Andrew
