I plan on using the new PCIe-6351 X Series
hardware which incorporates 4 counters. The current code example
enclosed works fine. My problem is, I need to measure position using
the linear encoder task and get my instantaneous velocity (v= d/t)
using the period task inside a correlated time reference. With the
current code, each timed loop is out of sync so my position/period
measurements are not synchronous. Is there a way to configure DaqMx to
run these counters in a single synchronous timed loop? If so, how is
such a configuration arranged?
I am able to get the
velocity using just the data from the linear encoder task, but this
requires an additional software routine and my measurement accuracy
suffers. It would be advantageous to incorporate an instantaneous
velocity reading using the period task.
If a new example configuration of DaqMx could be provided, that would be great.
Thanks Much For The Help,
