Is multirate sampling possible on DAQcard 6036E

[WL_RIC]

I have a DAQcard 6036E with a max sampling rate of 200kS/s, and I know that the per channel maximum when sampling 8 differential channels would be 25kS/s.

-When sampling all 8 channels, is there some simple way where I could sample 5 channels at a much lower rate, so that the remaining 3 could be greater than 25kHz? For example, 5 channels at 2kS/s with the remaining 3 at 60kS/s. Is the programming example "Continuously Acquiring Double-Buffered Data with DAQ Multirate Scan Functions" the only way in which this could be possible?

-If
this programming example would work, is there a chance it could be implemented into data acquisition through Matlab?

Greetings,

Multirate sampling is supported on our E-Series Multifunction Input/Output (MIO) boards, which includes the 6036E. The example you pointed to will allow you to set up different scan rates for individual channels. While this example specifies it was written for LabVIEW 5.0 and NI-DAQ 6.5, I was able to run it using LabVIEW 6.1 and NI-DAQ 6.9.3 and acquire from two separate channels at two separate scan rates.

As for implementation in Matlab, you will have to contact The Mathworks. They are the company which produces the Matlab program.
