Can I use digital I/O of PXI 7340 as general purpose Digital I/O?

[LabVIEW_vikas]

I have PXI 7340 Motion control card , UMI7764  and CB-68LP connector block, can i use all the 32 digital I/O of my PXI 7340 and general purpose digital I/O in my application to check out the status and sending TTL command to other systems.

And are it is the only way to using this digital I/O is  " Set I/O Port MOMO.flx ,Write Digital I/O Data.vi , Read I/O Port.flx and Read Digital I/O Data.vi  " or other method of nornal daq access can also be we can use.

Vikas,

yes, you can use the 32 digital I/Os and the trigger inputs and breakpoint outputs for general purpose digital I/O tasks. I guess that "normal daq access" refers to NI-DAQ or NI-DAQmx and the answer is no. 73xx boards don't have much in common with NI data acquisition products and they come with their own driver and API (NI-Motion). So you will have to use the functions that you have already found.

I hope this helps,

Jochen
