Generate delayed triggered pulse. Already have used both counters.

I need to generate sequence of 3 pulses. Each one is triggered with previuos one and has certain width. I have successfully used 2 counters on my 6713 card and I am wondering if there is any way to generate the third pulse. I thought if there was anything useful of another output signals such as GPCTR_SOURCE and GPCTR_GATE. For GPCTR_OUT I have used NI Visual Basic examples with components which work well. But I could not figure out how to program GPCTR_SOURCE and GPCTR_GATE or PFI signals with Visual Basic. I could use either components or DAQ functions but I could not find example.

Greetings,

Unfortunately, the other GPCTR lines (source and gate), when used in a counter context, are for input only. You may want to consider adding a counter (NI-TIO) board to your system:

PCI-6601
PCI-6602

Good luck with your application.
