4552 4 channel simultaneous time based acquisition

[HAP1462]

I am writing functional verification test software for production test equipment. I have an application to determine the phase difference and gain of four acoustic sensors. This requires that I perform a time domain data acquisition of all 4 channels of a PCI-4552 DSA board simultaneously. I know how to acquire from all 4 channels in frequency domain, but there seems to be very little information on acquiring from time domain. It is sketchy on how to even acquire all 4 channels in Frequency domain. My software is LabWindows/CVI and TestStand. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

You can stream the time domain information to the computer using the regular NI-DAQ driver functions. The downside is that you do not use the DSA driver and the onboard processing capabilities of the 4552. Below I have attached links to Knowledgebases that provide in depth information regarding NI-DSA and time domain analysis. Hope this helps. Have a good one.
