You must combine your individual data into an array. The digital waveform is simply a digital representation of the binary array. It still boils down to bit 0 of each array element going to channel 0 (or the first channel you specify in Create Dynamic Channels). The next bit goes to the next channel. My last post is quite clear. To display the array in binary, right click on an array element, then select Display Format, then select Binary. You can also right click on the element, select Visible, then select Show Radix to display the small b before the number. One more thing, in the Display Format window, uncheck the box next to Use minimum field width. Then set the numeric just under the box to 8. Then select Pad with zeros on left in the box below.
You should not use waveforms until you learn more about how the HSDIO operates on input data. It isn't hard to combine waveforms, but it also isn't as clear as using an array of U8 or U16 or U32.
Trying to explain further. The first number to be writen to the HSDIO will have this effect: Bit 0 (LSB) of the number gets written to the first HSDIO channel you specify. Bit 7 goes to the 8th channel you specify. If you don't specify 8 channels, the bits get ignored. So wiring in one number will produce only one bit on each channel. In other words, the number already combines the bits of all the channels you specify. You don't combine anything yourself. Look again at my picture on my last post. By wiring in an array, you cause a bit pattern to be generated.
I hope this is more clear.
