How can I acquire signal from the 2 counters on my 6034e board?

[Fredrabine]

I want to record one analog signal and one counter/timer signal with Diadem 8. I have a 6034e board. AI is not a problem, but when I define a counter in Diadem, for one of the two counters of the board, I get no or strange readings.

How have you connected your counter? You need the connection to be correct either source pin (TTL i/p signal) or gate if using the internal timebases.

Does the counters do exactly what you want them to within MAX?

[Fredrabine]

In MAX, I can only test one feature: pulse counts. So I connect a TTL signal between the source and the digital ground, and it counts a random number, of around 20-30 pulses, for each trigger. Same in Diadem. When I try period measurement (connected at the gate) or others with Diadem, I don't get anything.
I believe my wiring is correct as I'm used to counters with the PC-TIO-10 c/t board.
