I am trying to generate a signal (Analog or Digital) with a frequency range of 0 to 1440 Hz.
I need to stimulate an Acromag 250T-FQ (Link).
I tried doing it with a SW timed loop using the "wait(ms)" block in LabVIEW and the best freq i could get was 260Hz by cycling the Digital Output between high and low. I am open to suggestions, unfortunately i am in a little bit of a time crunch so i wont be able to buy new PXI card to solve this. I'm hoping to find a solution with what i got on hand.
I prefer to do it with one of the following PXI cards
PXI-6704
PXI-6232
PXI-6238
PXI-6528
I also have access to:
PXI-6255
PXI-6703
PXIe-4300
Accuracy is not super important as long as its within 5-10Hz of specified value.
I also need to generate 4 channels of variable freq. I'm hoping to get more than 1 channel out of whatever solution works, but i do have plenty of slots available in my chassis if that is not the case.
I found this example code, but I'm unsure if it will work with any of my available cards. i tried to replicate the VI in my system, but i could not identify/locate some of the vi components. My PXI system is a standalone model.
Any help the community can provide would be very much appreciated

That community example works with any of your PXI devices. What VIs are you missing? Do you have NI-DAQmx driver installed?

I have a full development suite installed. the problem is my development station is air gapped so I can't just download the VI posted without jumping through hoops. I was trying to recreate it via the picture but there a couple functions/subVI's that I could not find easily.
I've circled the ones I could not find.
