M Series Correlated Digital Input with Counter Clock Generation in ANSI C
Print
/*********************************************************************
*
* ANSI C Example program:
* Correlated DIO Counter Gen Dig Start.c
*
* Example Category:
* DI
*
* Description:
* This example demonstrates how use any M Series MIO card to acquire
* a finite amount of data using a digital start trigger and hardware
* timing provided by an onboard counter.
*
* Instructions for Running:
* 1. Select the Physical Channel to correspond to where your
* signal is input on the DAQ device.
* 2. Select how many Samples to Acquire on Each Channel.
* 3. Set the Rate of the Acquisition.
* 4. Select the Source and Edge of the Digital Start Trigger
* for the acquisition.
*
* Steps:
* 1. Create digital input and counter output tasks.
* 2. Create a digital input channel and a counter output channel.
* 3. Define the parameters for an External Clock Source from the
* internal counter output channel. Additionally, define the sample
* mode to be Finite.
* 4. Define the parameters for a Digital Edge Start Trigger.
* 5. Call the Start function to begin the acquisition.
* 6. Use the Read function to retrieve the waveform. Set a timeout
* so an error is returned if the samples are not returned in
* the specified time limit.
* 7. Call the Clear Task function to clear the tasks.
* 8. Display an error if any.
*
* I/O Connections Overview:
* Make sure your signal input terminal matches the Physical
* Channel I/O Control. Also, make sure your digital trigger
* terminal matches the Trigger Source Control. For further
* connection information, refer to your hardware reference manual.
