External clocking on PCI-6534

[Joe M.]

How do I connect an oscillator (14MHz) as an external clock for pattern generation output from a PCI-6534?

Hello,

Your DAQ card supports pattern I/O up to 20MHz, so this issue is just a matter of physical connectivity.

You will want to connect the oscillator to the REQ pin on your breakout box. If you selected an external clock in the clock source control, connect your clock signal to the REQ pin. Use REQ1 if your port list is 0, 0:1, or 0:3, otherwise use REQ2. If you selected an internal clock, the clock signal is output on the REQ pin of the I/O connector.

Here is an example LabVIEW program that you can use for testing (provided you are using LabVIEW).

I hope this helps. Please let me know if I can further as
sist you.
