How to control timing of DAQ outputs

[NIquist]

Yeah, I have co-workers with LV8.0 that can get me back to 7.1 but I rarely need to these days.  Plus, there is always smercurio's conversion threads, bless his heart.

Thanks for the info, RF!

Thanks ravens fan for the help. I really appreciate it.

Paulie I have a quick question.

When setting up the device and the ports I only see a box to set one port. Doesnt there need to be 2 boxes, aka another one to set the second port?

NVM I just highlighted the multiple outputs when I selected them.

You can define two ports like this:

devxx/port0/line3:4 -> this means digital I/Os 0.3 and 0.4 are used. You can define 3,4 or how many do you want. eg: line0:7 (the entire port, 8 outputs).

When using the DAQmx Write VI the selected option is Write 1 Sample, N Channels (the channels previous defined). That is why the input is an 1D Boolean array with 2 elements (First for the first output p0.3 and the second for the second port p0.4).

PS: I'm now writing from my personal laptop. That's why I cannot downconvert anything.
