buffered counting 6008

[cees10]

Hi to all

Is here some one who can tell me how i can make a buffered counting of the  pulse count

This make sure i have a correct speed     count/time

The problem also is that i also need to see on meter how fast the speed is   i want to count as fast as possible  ,but the meter must run  at normal slow speed

Sorry guys i am new to labview   to please do not be so hard on me ,

Any one who could help me?

i want a TDMS file

Hi,

First of all, next time you should think about posting this into the hardware forums.

Buffered Counting is not possible with USB-6008!

mm

strange    on page  6008 specs

here its says

Buffered Operations	Yes

is counting not a operation?

[Christian Mergl]

Buffered operations for AI and AO, but not for counter operations.

Where exaclty tid you see this statement, I couldn't dinf it under the product site you linked.

Cristian Hi

sorry here 

you see it

Hi,

I agree, this is really strange!

Though I know that buffered operations are not possible with a USB-6008. It's a very simple counter just for edge counting and it can only be controlled per software, due to that you can only select "On Demand" Timing. And for bufferd operations you will need a hardware clock.

Let me check whats up with that manual or if I'm really wrong.

Hi,

As I said buffered counting is not supported with USB 6008. There is a mistake at the webpage.

However, could you explain a bit more in detail what you want to do, maybe we find another solution.

Hi Cristian

Well i count pulse´s to calc speed but i also need to display the speed at the same time,its already in a array but when i go slower as 1 sec in sampling data   i get faults  wrong speeds

if i want evry 0,1 the speed i get the error   and since it has no sample i have no idea how to solve this
