ABOUT THE TWO COUNTERS OF THE AT-MIO-16-E

This is my question.I've an AT-MIO-16-E and I need the two counters to work simultaneously to acqquire two frequencies countinously.I can't find a way to let them work countinously:they always stop after an acquisition.I've tried to use a while loop in the example "Measure period" but while they are resetted and rearmed I loose some values.Is there a way to solve this problem?Can the counters of an AT-MIO-16-E count countinously?
Please help me.

Hello;

The counters at that board of yours can do event count continuously but not period/frequency measurement continuously. To do that, you will need either the PCI-6601 or PCI-6602 boards. I'm attaching an example VI which does that, but this VI only works for those two types of boards.
Hope this helps.
