How can I aquire and display a sweep sine wave signal which is generated by 5411 using 6035?

I am using 5411 to generate a swept sinewave signal and it works. Now I am trying to acquire date by using 6035E DAQ card. How can I do it, acquire data at every frequency point or after the generation finished (if I don't use a buffer)? How to display this swept sinewave in LabVIEW front panel?
Thank you very much!

The easiest way to acquire this data would be to connect the analog output from the 5411 to one of the analog inputs of the 6035E. Then you can perform an analog input similar to one of the shipping examples (Cont Acq&Graph (buffered).vi). I would just set your sample rate to at least 10 times your frequency of your swept sine wave. This will plot 10 points per cycle. If you want more precision you will need to increase the sampling rate.

I am not sure if you were wanting to use some sort of triggering or not, but there are several shipping examples for that as well.

I hope this helps.
