Setting Active Drive on USB 6009 DIO

[ChrisNagy]

From the USB6008/6009 Users manual:

"The NI USB-6009 ports can also be configured as active drive using the NI-DAQmx API, allowing 3.3 V operation with a source/sink current limit of ±8.5 mA. Refer to the NI-DAQmx Help for more information about how to set the DIO configuration."

I cannot seem to find this inteh help, as referred to above.  How do I do this?

Hey ChrisNagy,

I believe that is referring to the help file titled "Push-Pull and Open Collector Mode" which doesn't quite cover exactly how to do it.

There is a great tutorial on this located here.  The section Using NI-DAQmx to change to Push-Pull Operation should help. 

There are also many related links toward the bottom.
