DAQmx equivalent of DAQ-Legacy DIO initialization

[DRALV]

Hello,

I have been trying to figure out the equivalent of a VI that used Traditional NI DAQ in DAQmx. For example, I cannot figure out how I could replace the handshaking parameters for the DIO config.

The NI-DAQ legacy being way too old, I am having hard time finding clues for most functions.

Any kind of help is appreciated, thank you for your attention.

PS : Please find enclosed a small portion of the diagram and don't hesitate to ask for more information if you're interested in helping out 😊

Have you already read this tutorial? See page 3-55 for an explanation of DIO handshaking modes!

As I read it you should either use software-timed DIO channels (no handshaking) or hardware-timed channels (handshaking) with DAQmx…
