Uploading Data onto a buffer that outputs with a custom clock pulse

Hello,

I am currently trying to develop a program that will allow me to upload on or off values to a buffer, and then output these values based on a custom digital waveform I created.  Using a notepad file, I am able to create a digital waveform that is split into microsecond increments. For example if I type 1    0    1    0    0 in the notepad file, the LabVIEW program will create a digital waveform that is high for 1 microsecond and then low for 1 microsecond, then high for 1 microsecond and low for the next 2 microseconds.  After expanding this file to have high and low values covering 30 seconds of time  I was hoping to use this as a clock pulse for releasing the high and low values for 8 channels on a PCI 6220 DAQ board.  If anyone has suggestions on how to go about this it would be extremely helpful. Thank you

Hi EESteve1992,

 

Here are some resources to help you load your digital waveform onto your DAQ application.
This forum post goes over how to generate a waveform using DAQ:

This example gives an example of how to load your data onto your DAQ:

Hopefully this will help you get started.
