DAQmx Tasks

[sesinfo]

If I include same channels in two different tasks will my system allot different resources to them, or it will allot same resource due to same channels included in two different tasks created because of which if you initialize both the resources simultaneously it can pose resource related error.

Wouldn't it be much quicker/easier if you would just test/start your two tasks in parallel?

You can't use a channel in more than one task. You will get Error -50103

Case 3: Using multiple tasks to access the same physical channels on a data acquisition board.

... why include the same channel in more than one DAQmx task?
