NI-DAQ GPCTR_Set_Application fails on ND_SIMPLE_TIME_MSR on DAQCard 6036E

[pvdm]

I try to use the 24 bit counter/timer on my DAQCard 6036E to do simple time measurements. I used the example file TIOGPStimeNsoftwareEvents.c and adapted it to do simple time measurements without synchronization.
At line
GPCTR_Set_Application (1, ND_COUNTER_0, ND_SIMPLE_TIME_MSR);
, the application yields a -10120 gpctrBadApplicationError error.
I also get errors on the subsequent GPCTR_Change_Parameter function calls.
I really need help on this on!
I use NI-DAQ 6.9.3 with patch.
