Setting the count for the counter (PXI6624)

[drgunn]

I am trying to get a counter to provide a level output  to indicate it is working (self testing a test stand).  How do I load the

counter to get it to reach terminal count?

Hi Dave,

Wire the maximum count value into the initial count terminal.  This value can be found on page 2 of the manual or calculated from the counter resolution, which is 32 bits for the NI 6624, thus maximum count value=2^32-1.
