Running the waveform from PXI6552

[Rus_K]

What is the the best way to run the pattern/waveform from PXI6552 on board memory. We are writing the code to PXI every time we need to send the data. Sending and receiving the data does not take a long time, but since we process the code every time it take a long time for  us to take the data. Can I run the code once and then have PXI to run it let say 2000 times and collect the data to its memmory , and when it is done dump it to the file at once?

It sounds like what you are looking for is scripting.  In scripting, you load a waveform into memory on the card and can run it some number of times from the on board memory of the card without having to reload it everytime.  You could also include the receiving as part of this script and then just fetch off the memory at the end.  To learn more about HSDIO Scripting you can check out the following resources:

There are also some examples in the LabVIEW Example Finder available.

Hope this helps!
