In buffered period measurement, can I put at the gate of a counter the internal clock of my 6602?

Can I do it? (there is another internal clock of other frecuency at the source). Can I do it simply using "gate.vi" or I have to use route signal?

Hello;

In case you are using a higher TimeBase clock as the source input of the counter, you can't use the lower frequency Timebase.

The Timebase clock source is the same internal counter, in hardware, that gets divided down in case you need to operate with the lower frequency. Anyway, the source is the same, therefore you can't use both Timebase frequences at the same time.
