I'm doing the basic Counter Channel in C#. I asked the NI engineers about this, they said stop and restart the Counter Task. But that kills my performace and can't read fast enough.
myCITask = new NationalInstruments.DAQmx.Task();
myCITask.CIChannels.CreateCountEdgesChannel("Dev1" + "/ctr0", "Dev1" + "ctr0",
CICountEdgesActiveEdge.Falling, 0, CICountEdgesCountDirection.Up);
runningTask = myCITask;
myCITask.Control(TaskAction.Verify);
counterInReader = new CounterSingleChannelReader(myCITask.Stream);
counterInCB = new AsyncCallback(CounterInCallback);
counterInReader.SynchronizeCallbacks = true;
counterInReader.BeginReadSingleSampleInt32(counterInCB, null);
And in the Callback ciData int value is at risk of an overflow
ciData = counterInReader.EndReadSingleSampleInt32();
I tried this:
myCITask.CIChannels[0].CountEdgesCountResetResetCount = 0;
But that kills the whole thread and callback mechanism. I can't reset ciData to 0 unless I stop and restart the Task. But that does bad things to timing.
Does anyone know how to get the counterInReader initial count value back to 0?
Any help is appreciated.
Also, how do you delay the callback say 40 milliseconds? I'm just not seeing it.
counterInReader.BeginReadSingleSampleInt32(counterInCB, null);
