Issue Details

I am measuring the analog voltage with NI-9215 module and frequency of pulse train with NI-9402 using counter and at the same time. Is it possible to synchronize those measurements?

Solution

Yes, you can synchronize those measurements, using the same sample clock for both DAQmx tasks. There is an example available for you, showing exactly how you can synchronize your measurements.

Additional Information

You can also make sure that both tasks will start at the same time, using triggering .
