microsecond tick count

Hallo,

I'd like to enhance the precision of the tick count on my LabVIEW 8 to microsecond, and actually I find the following thread
http://forums.ni.com/ni/board/message?board.id=170&message.id=197442&query.id=587046
on this forum. Since there is no confirmation on the recommended llb for LV7, I'd love to know:
1. Can I directly use it?
2. Should I save it in
C:\Programme\National Instruments\LabVIEW 8.0\instr.lib
or C:\Programme\National Instruments\LabVIEW 8.0\vi.lib?

Any advice is welcome.

Hi win2,

1) You can directly use it. It gives you a relative timecounter like the standard millisecond timer functions.
2) You should NOT put your own functions into LabView's 'private' function libraries! There's a folder named 'user.lib' for just this purpose!
Best regards,
GerdW
