Hi, I am trying to implement PTP sychronization on my PXIe-1078 chassis using a PXI-6683H timing module. I have read the NI article (https://knowledge.ni.com/KnowledgeArticleDetails?id=kA03q000000x3IVCAY&l=en-US) on this process which is helpful but I am new to PTP timing and now have a few more questions:
1.) the article gives two ways to implement the PTP timing, through NI max and also through labview coding. Am I correct in understanding that this is an either or scenario, and if I don't see a need to have my program change the timing programatically, I can make the changes through MAX and then my program will use PTP for the sample clock (if it is set up right)
2.) i am confused what is happening exactly when I follow the steps in the section titled "Synchronizing PXI_Clk10 to the IEEE 1588 Time Reference". I think this means to sync the pxi internal clock the the PTP timing? If I did not do this step, would essentially nothing be synchronized since my program is being synchronized already based on the internal clock on the chassis?
