Question about voltage holding of multi Analog outputs

Solved!
Go to solution

Hi, I'm programming my NI USB-6008 with V++.

Now I have a question. The device has 2 analog outputs.

When I set channel "ao0" to a certain voltage, then stop this task. Then start another task and set channel "ao1" to another certain voltage. When I do the second task, will ao0 hold the voltage set in the first task?

Thanks.

Hi Lowsfer-

 

     Yes, the analog output state of AO1 will remain in the last state it was before the task was stopped.  As long as the device is not reset or the computer is not turned off, the analog output will maintain the last voltage you specified, regardless of what the other Ao channel is doing.

 

     I hope this helps.  Best of luck with your application!
