Currently trying to configure PCI6601 for single pulse generation using library function (Easy IO for DAQ) in LabWindows/CVI. What I would like to know is the sequence of methods that need to be called. There is a config routine for the counters, one to set up the pulse and one to start the counters. I currently use those 3 to create a pulse but when I use the same 3 routines to setup another pulse the two pulsed look nothing alike. One looks like a spike while the second looks correct. Any help would be appreciated or a reference to where I can look! Thanks
Here is an example program that will generate a single pulse. It does not use the Easy I/O functions, though rather the normal NI-DAQ functions. (This example was writen for boards with the STC chip, though it will work with your 6601.)
