Finite Digital Input With Digital Start Trigger - C#.NET
This example demonstrates how to acquire a finite digital input with a digital start trigger.
Instructions for Running:
1. Select the digital input port for the acquisition.
2. Select the PFI or RTSI line that will be used for the digital start trigger
3. Set the number of digital samples you would like to acquire.
4. Set the desired sampling rate.
NOTE: Certain boards will not allow all PFI lines as digital start triggers. If you select a line that is not compatible, an error will be generated, and suggested lines will be shown.
Steps:
1. Create a new digital input task, and use DIChannels.CreateChannel() to configre the port for digital input.
2. Configure the timing specifications using Task.Timing.ConfigureSampleClock method. If you would like to do continously, set the SampleQuantityMode to be continuous.
3. Create the DigitalSingleChannelReader object, and register the callback function. Verify and start the task.
4. Call BeginMultiSampleRead method to start the asynchronous input.
5. Within the callback function, display the data. If you would like to use a continuous operation, call the BeginMultiSampleRead at the end of the callback.
6. When the callback has completed (or for continuous mode, if the stop button is pressed), Dispose of the DAQmx task.
Other Uses:
If you would like to do a multiple port acquisition, use the DigitalMultiChannelReader object instead of DigitalSingleChannelReader. DigitalSingleChannelReader is optimized for a single channel operation.
