synchronizing digital output and analog data acquisition

[chrys]

I need to synchronize digital output and analog data acquisition so that the digital output is the trigger for initiating data acquisition. The whole operation should require no outside devices so that use of the digital port on the board is the trigger for analog data acquisition on the same board. I am using LabVIEW6.0 and an AT-MIO-16E-1 board.
Does anyone have any advice?

thanks,
Jon.

Hi Jon,
thers is an example in Lv for digital triggering an analog acquisition.
You can find it at:
\EXAMPLES\DAQ\ANLOGIN\ANLOGIN.LLB\ContAcq& Graph(buffered)D-Trig.vi
See the vi help that gives a complete description.
For your task you should add a simply digital output routine ( there are many examples) and make the proper connections.

Good luck,
Alberto
