Labview help files seem to suggest that I should be able to use the "Group Config" vi to configure 2 counters within a single task ID so that I can read both counters simultaneously with a single read command, but I am having trouble doing this so far.
The only way that I can read both counters is to run the group config vi two times, creating two separate task IDs. For each task ID, I can then run "Set Attribute" to set the attributes of the counters, and then "Get Attribute" to actually read the counter values.
I need to configure the two counters separately (so that each looks at a different input), but I would like to be able to arm them and reset them together.
Any help would be greatly appreciated! I've seen example vis that read them sequentially (in the way that I am doing now), but Labview help suggests that the "Group Config" vi can allow you to group several counters together so that you can address multiple counters with a single read command.
