I am trying to use NI-Sync to create a clock to then send triggers to an output. From looking at the example Here , it should work. However, I am getting the error of "Property Node (arg 1) in niSync Create Clock (Frequency).vi:6780001->triggerMultiplySandbox.vi <ERR>This operation requires a feature that is not supported." So it looks like its erroring at the create Clock.vi. I believe I am following all the rules, so it should work? See attached for my vi.I've set the frequency from 10 KHz to 1 MHz to see if its maybe a frequency issue. The coerced freq is always inf

Hi, The onboard clock gen of the PXIe-6674T is a DDS and which does not support niSync Create Clock.vi to generate clocks. To generate a clock with the PXIe-6674T, use the DDS Properties>>DDS Frequency property node then route the DDS to the designed terminal. You can route the DDS directly to some terminals like ClkOut, PXI_LVDS#, and PXIe-DStarA#. For other terminals, you'll need to set the synchronization clock to the DDS and then route the synchronization clock as the source. For example to generate a specific frequency on PXI_Trig0 with the PXIe-6674T, you would take the following steps: Set property DDS Properties>>DDS Frequency to the frequency Set property Synchronization Clock Properties>>Synchronization Clock Source (PXI_Trig, PXI_Star, PXIe_DStarB) to DDS Route Synchronization Clock (Full Speed)/SyncClkFullSpeed to PXI_Trig0 In the PXIe-6674T User Manual, you can find a summary of all the possible routes in Figure 7. Sources and Destinations for PXIe-6674T Signal Routing Operations. Also, I'd recommend leaving the PXIe-6674T in the system timing slot of your chassis which is slot 4 for the PXIe-1082. For PXI-1 chassis, the system timing slot was often slot 2, but for PXI Express chassis the system timing slot can vary based on chassis model. I hope this helps,-Tyler

NI Sync Create Clock Issue

Solved!

I believe, that I have seen in the manual, that 50 MHz is the threshold between fast and slow clock speeds. I guess it is hard to maintain shape of the multi frequency signal (rectangle) at high speeds and they switch to mono frequency (sine).
