DAQmx - Software trigger

[Marc-Henri]

Hi all,

I would like to knows if it's possible to start a task with a software trigger if an analog start trigger doesn't appear after a timeout (e.g. 2 seconds)?

In fact you need to change trigger type of the task or to have different trigger types, I do not know how to do it directly

The workarounds:

1) Stop task if it gives timeout (= specified time), change trigger type and restart it. Be sure to commit task before first start to increase speed.

2) It may work to connect internal 20MHz timebase to the trigger terminal (Daqmx routing palette) after the specified time
