cDAQ and Microstrain GX4 IMU synchronization

Hi, 

 

I am currently trying to synchronize a Microstrain GX4-15 USB Inertial Measurement Unit with a multichannel cDAQ. The two possibilities I have seen so far is either polling data from the IMU at each sample taken by the cDAQ, or sharing a start trigger and internal clock. I am not yet sure about how to connect the internal clock of the IMU with the cDAQ (or if it is even possible), so my prefered method would be the polling method. Does anybody now how could I trigger the IMU at each time the cDAQ takes a sample? Does anybody now any other way of synchronizing these devices?

Thanks in advance!

Mikel
