Combine two counter output, analog input using PCI-6025E?

[celery]

Hi, everyone,
I am now using PCI-6025E to control and acquire data from a CMOS image
sensor. This sensor has its own driver circuit. What we need to
supply is one start clock (single pulse) and one master clock
(contineous pulse train with duty cycle=50%). It has three outputs,
one signal line (analog input), one trigger line(respect to this
signal, can use as scanclock)) and one EOS line, can be used as stop
trigger.
Now what i am not sure is that can I use PCI-6025E as my two clock
(both start and master) generator? Can I generate two signals at the
same time? One idea in my mind is that, i generate one single pulse
using counter 0 once software called, and using this as both image
sensor start clock and gatin
g signal of continous clock using counter
1. Can I do it this way? Or are there any other suggestions?
Thank you in advance for helping and suggestion. Yous suggestions will
be appreciated so much.

Regards,
celery ^_^

Celery,

>> Can I generate two signals at the same time?

Yes. The PCI-6025E has two counter/timers and each can be configured for a separate operation. A continuous pulse train generation only requires one counter. You will then have one free. Take a look at the LabVIEW shipping example titled, "Generate Pulse Train (DAQ-STC).vi" for more information.

Yes. Just configure one counter for Continuous Pulse Train generation and the other for Single Pulse Generation. Take a look at the LabVIEW shipping example titled, "Generate Single Pulse (DAQ-STC).vi" for help on generating a single pulse from your counter.
