How to synchronize two PCI-6602 via RTSI for semi-period counting of four signals?

Hello,
 
I try to measure 4 PWM signals. For that, I created 4 tasks (newest DAQmx), each with semi-period measuring one signal.
I want to use DMA so I have two 6602 for each two signals.
The task aquire a finite number of samples.
This works fine when starting the tasks subsequently.
 
Now I want to start the tasks via a trigger on the RTSI bus.
But I have no idea how to get this done.
 
I use the MX drivers for the first time an find it very difficult to get through the help files.
I looked at many examples but did not find a solution.
 
Most of the time my experiments end with an error message saying that the property is not applicable to this task, or s.th.similar.
Ans sometimes, when there seems to be a trigger defined, the task will not wait for the trigger and time out.
 
Is the anybody who can help me out of this?
Maybe a little sample program?
 
I program in CVI.
 
Many Thanks
Michael.
