How to create a 60 Hz timed loop?

[Baran_]

Hi all,

I want to have a 60 Hz timed while loop.

By default this block has 1 KHz clock source.

How can I change its timing source to 60 Hz?

Thanks in advance

Perhaps the better question to ask is: Why?

Are you trying to generate a 60Hz signal?

I want to display an image with submultiple of 60 Hz flickering rate, and different frequency and phase of displaying.

So I thought about doing that with a precise timed loop.

In Windows you will never get a "precise timed loop".

That having been said, take a look at this:  https://knowledge.ni.com/KnowledgeArticleDetails?id=kA00Z000000P82BSAS&l=en-US

If you don't care about jitter (which you'll have on Windows anyway) you could set the dt alternately to [16,17,17] in each iteration.
