using one of the data lines as PCI-6552 event

I would like to have data at 10 outputs of PCI-6552 (in generation mode), simoultanously I would like to have same the data of one of this lines as a digital event to send to PCI-5122 board.
Is there any sample to show this. All the samples, which I found, are using just a source for an event not simoultanously generate data. I could not figure out how I can separate sending the data (HWS file) to the outputs and simoultanously send the event to e.g. PFI1 port.

Let me make sure I understand what you are wanting to do. You want to output digital patterns on 10 lines and at the same time send the pattern from one of these lines to PFI1. Is this correct?

My first thought is what do want to do with the PFI1 line? Is there a reason that you can't just duplicate a pattern on one of your other lines and send that wherever PFI1 is going? Or is there an event that you want to generate?

There are several events you can use such as a Marker, Start Trigger, and Reference Trigger. These internal signals along with the PXI triggers are the only signals which can be routed to PFI1 (see the HSDIO help file for more info).
