Can anybody please let me know how to calculate the RPM using the cRIO, NI 9401 please.
Thanks in advance.

There are a few ways to do this:
1. Count the number of ticks between pulses. This will give you a period (time). From there it is just a little math: 60/T
2. Count the number of pulses in a second and then multiply by 60.
For both of these, I am assuming 1 pulse per revolution. If you have more pulses in a revolution, just divide by that number.
