How to read 2 digital inputs (from 1 port) in labview

 

Hi, I am new to Labview and NI tools in general.  I was not sure where to post this question, so adding to the labview discussion forum since I believe it is simply a labview problem with my program.  I am trying to use 2 individual lines on Port 0 of a NI-PXIe 6363 to read and move to individual arrays ~3000 pieces of digital data.  The problem I continue to run into is that for whatever reason, my Labview program is taking the sum of Lines 0 & 1 and recording that into my array of data as opposed to the individual lines that I believe I have selected.  I have attached my labview module.

 

If I change the DAQmx Read selection over to a Digital 1D Wafeform, then I can see the 2 individual lines of data in the waveform, but I also see the sum as seen in my array in the digital waveform graph as well.  I have attached a screen shot showing my 2 lines of data in this mode.  I have also tried to use this data to extract and move to an array with no luck.

 

My end gold is to have 2 arrays of 3000 pieces of 1 & 0's that I an return to Test Stand.

 

Thanks in advance to the help.

Hi,

 

I believe what you are seeing is expected behavior, but what you want for your application is for the DAQmx Read VI to be configured to output a waveform. I have modified your code slightly and attached it below. I hope this helps!
