NI PCI 6602 triggered counters

[Limping_Twerp]

Dear community,

I have a general question concerning the possibility regarding the measurement capabilities of the NI PCI 6602. Here is what I need: Data of the form [time,count] with an equidistant time intervall of 1ms. It needs to be synchronized to the actual counts to a very high degree. So CAN I trigger a counter readout which does not vary too much around the desired time mark and stays constant over time? How would I do it? Since this specific card does not seem to have a hardware trigger the only possibilty seems to be a software trigger, but if this is possible, how would I accomplish it (possibly using the Daqmx library)?

Thank you very much in advance, 

Kai

Dear Kai,

I found a KB which should be interesting for you:

For any further questions you can ask.
