continuous current measurement using NI 9219

[JohnChae0929]

Hi! I'm trying to make a continuous current measurement using NI 9219 and even though I put the acquisition mode to continuous samples, it would only read the "samples to read" amount of samples out of time. So in the picture it is set to 10, it would continuously measure 10 samples at a time but I want it to keep measuring until I hit stop or something like that. How would I go about doing so? Thanks in advanced!

Looks like you have not been through the basics of DAQmx. The dialog is DAQmx Task creation and not the place you collect data instead just set up the hardware for data collection.

This article comes handy, (skip the DAQ Assistant part)
