Can I have AI Inputs on a DAQ triggering independantly?

[hjehan]

I have a USB-6210 DAQ.  I would like to have 3 AIN channels triggered independantly - either by a 3 software commands, or by a hardware trigger.  Is this possible?  I have looked at MEASUREMENT & EXPLORER - it looks like the only option is to trigger all channels simultaniously. 

Is it possible to have 3 tasks running at the same time?  That way I could create 3 tasks, each with 1 AIN channel and a trigger.

You can not run more than one task t the same time, and you can't hardware trigger 3 AIN channels independently.

However, you can have software triggers for the different channels, depending on the way you set up your system. To get a better idea on software triggers, I recommed checking the" Acq&Graph Voltage-Int Clk SW Trig  Restarts.vi " example in LabVIEW.

You can find the example in LabVIEW under help >> Find Examples >> hardware Iput and Output >> DAQmx >> Analog Measurment >> Voltage.

Best of Luck
