What signal events are supported by USB-6216?

[Tsquared]

I keep getting -200982 error when trying to register events using DAQmxRegisterSignalEvent on my USB-6216.   What events are supported by the 6216?  I cannot find this information in the user manual or anywhere on the web.

Hi Tsquared,

What signal are you trying to register an event for with DAQmxRegisterSignalEvent?  Valid signals include:

DAQmx_Val_SampleClock

DAQmx_Val_SampleCompleteEvent

DAQmx_Val_ChangeDetectionEvent

DAQmx_Val_CounterOutputEvent

The USB-6216 should be able to support these signal types. You can find a complete listing of properties your device supports in the NI-DAQmx C Reference Help under the "Supported Properties by Device" section on the Contents tab.

After additional research I realized that the USB-6216 does not actually support change detection, therefore you will not be able to use DAQmx_Val_ChangeDetectionEvent.  I apologize if my previous post was misleading. You should still be able to register the other events.

Regards,
