Log an analog channel and counter period channel to hard disk simultaneously

We are in a rush, and need to log one analog channel and one counter period measurement to disk simultaneoulsy using card controlled timing and set # of samples. Should be easy, but can't figure it out. Labview 6.1 we have & DAQ 6013E we just bought.

Greetings,

With regards to logging analog input data to file, I would suggest that you examine the examples available in the following location:

Examples >> Hardware Input and Output >> DAQ >> Analog Input >> Stream to Disk

Because you are interested in a finite number of samples, you should look at Acq N Scans to File (wdt).vi.

With regards to logging period measurement data to file, I would suggest that you examine the following example:

Examples >> Hardware Input and Output >> DAQ >> Counters >> DAQ-STC >> Measure Buffered Period (DAQ-STC).vi

This example does not log to file, but it does demonstrate how to program a buffered period measurement. You will need to add the logging functionality to this VI as demonstrated in Analog Input >> Stre
am to Disk.

Good luck with your application.

Spencer S.
