Counter to generate event after certain counts

[evangel55]

Hi everyone,

I would like to use my PXI card to generate an event (to my software) every say, 100 counts(for 100kHz Timebase). In other words, is it possible to generate an event every 1 ms based on the counts on the counters.

 Also, is it possible to reset this counter based on the GPS 1 PPS? I wanted to sync this counter with the incoming GPS PPS. Thanks!

Regards,
YB

Hello,

It is possible to reset a counter using a boolean input. If you could convert you GPS PPS signal to a boolean array, this idea applies.  I'm linking a knowledgebase article that demonstrates how to reset a counter. It should be very useful in getting you started.
