NI CompactDAQ Multi Module Synchronization

[Sir_N]

I am testing a pump system and intend to enable plump with a digital driver and I need to record both analog and digital output from the unit

Using a 9178 USB compact DAQ chassy

Generating start pulse with NI-9476 digital driver

Acquiring data with NI-9422 Digital Input and NI-9205 Analog Input

Only the start needs to be synchronized.

How can this be done in DAQmx ?

Hi Sir_N,

I believe you'll need to use DAQmx Trigger.vi or DAQmx Trigger Property Node.

There are some examples in NI Example Finder which you can refer to (Open LabVIEW >> Help >> Find Examples... >> In NI Example Finder, go to Search and search for keyword "trigger").

There are some links which are related to this as well:

Hope that helps
