How to output sample and convert clocks to PFI lines of E-Series DAQ (DAQPad-60​15)

Hi,
Can someone tell me how to output sample and convert clocks to PFI lines of E-Series DAQ (DAQPad-6015)?
Thank you very much.
Jack

John --
Windows is not an option for me. I like your idea of using a counter output -- it may be helpful as I am getting ramped up, but my application will eventually require both timer outputs.
I have a legacy C application written for Macintosh, and I am in the process of moving it onto OS X. So my options are to use DAQmx Base, or write an in-kernel driver. I actually have already done the latter for 6024/6025 E-series boards (for another company); for this client I was hoping to use the DAQmx Base to allow an easy transition to M-series boards, without the cost of writing and supporting a low-level driver.
The specific task I am doing is relatively straightforward. I record 2 channels of AI for a short period (usually about 250 ms.) and during this time I drive 2 external digital signals. Right now, I use the 2 timer outputs, which allows precise synchronization with the output and AI sampling.
I appreciate your comments, and thanks in advance for any additional suggestions you can lob my way.

  • How to output data when converting labview vi into matlab mex functions

    Hi,
    I am a fairly new user to labview and am currently working on labview
    7.1. I have created a labview vi which can extract data from ni daq
    6070e in real time. The problem is that this code has to be converted
    so that it can be used with matlab.in order to do that i am using math
    interactive tool kit which converts the labview code into mex files
    which can then be used in matlab. Unfortunately i have not been able to
    figure out how to output this data so that it can be processed in
    matlab easily. i cannot afford any loss of information and all the
    output must happen in real time. the o/p must take place after the fft
    has been done. i am attaching the vi for convenience.There are 10
    broken wires ,and this is the place where i want the o/p to be
    generated.
    Also do let me know if this vi can be further improved.
    Regards

    Manuj,
    You seem to have misunderstood the way in which LabVIEW processes data.  The code that you have produced will run in exactly the same way without the need for the case structure.
    The code does not actually run the data from the previous case. It is merely processing data from the previous loop iteration, regardless of the case. If you were to remove the case structure, leaving only one copy of the code intact, and remove the toggle switch you have produced, or used the shift register which, I assure you would have worked, then you will have exactly the same functionality.
    I have attached an example that uses the shift register to toggle cases, but also iterates that the case structure is not needed by using the same feedback node (and code) without a toggle switch or case structure.
    Hope this helps you optimize your code

  • ITunes no longer recognizes midi files how can I play and convert them?

    iTunes 10.3 recognised midi files, I could "move" them to the iTunes library and select them. then click on "Advanced" and "Convert to AAC" (or to MP3 etc).
    iTunes 10.5 will not recognise midi files.
    I think an older version of GarageBand could also read and convert midi files, but this no longer appears to be the case either in the latest version.
    How can I now convet midi files? Has Apple decided to simply ignore them?

    Thanks to Limnos, I now have some further things to try, but in the meantime I found I had been maligning GarageBand 11. Indeed its built-in Help system doesn't seem to mention Midi files at all, but I found out how to insert them from Apple's on-line support system at http://support.apple.com/kb/PH2009 and it works superbly well - one can even change the instruments on individual channels etc and then save the lot as an AAC (m4a) or mp3 etc file.
    I also loaded up an old version of iTunes, version 10.3, which still recognises Midi files and can convert them to AAC or mp3 but in so doing some volume seems to be lost.
    But the winner so far for me has been Audacity, free software. One needs to add a LAME encoder for mp3 output, I installed Soundflower and routed the playback of the midi file available in the Finder (in fact for the whole machine, while playing the midi file) and declared Soundflower as the input for Audacity. I could then use Audacity's effects menu to increase the volume throughout the track and save it. I then, using the Sound preferences of the machine, switched back to the inbuilt speakers and was able to listen to a higher volume version, playable in iTunes 10.5. More faithful to the original midi file than the GarageBand version.
    See instructions at http://ask.brothersoft.com/tags/convert-midi-to-mp3/ and in particular one of the links http://ask.brothersoft.com/how-to-convert-a-midi-to-a-mp3-using-audacity-26125.h tml
    This is for Windows but for Mac it's very similar/ - still Audacity. BUT the instructions in the last link don't seem to quite work, which is why I had to use Soundflower. I can import the midi file, I can select it, but then the export item on the file menu remains greyed out and unuseable, so I must presumably be missing some plug-in. Also Audacity keeps telling me it can't find various ffmpeg files even though I thought I had installed them correctly. I'm obviously missing something here, but at least I can now get my midi files into aac or mp3 format again at last.
    For Soundflower see http://cycling74.com/soundflower-landing-page/ and http://kineme.net/forum/General/soundflowerforlion
    and there is a useful tutorial by Nowjobless on YouTube at
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r3FGOIW08gA&feature=related
    Good luck to anyone else facing the same problems, it remains to be seen how to "convert" midi files to mp3 in Audacity without recourse to Soundflower.

    Select Music under Library in the iTunes source list to view all music available in your iTunes library. Select and drag the music that you want in the Playlist to the Playlist and then release. This does not copy the music. This creates a pointer to the music in your iTunes library only. To delete a song from the Playlist, select the song followed by delete. Deleting a song from a Playlist does not delete the song from your iTunes library. You can have the same song in multiple playlists.

  • How to identify Parked and Posted Documents in GL Line Item Report

    Is there any way to identify parked and posted documents in GL Line Item Report S_ALR_87012282? If i tick the parked documents in the further selection tab in the selection parameter, report will list all documents (parked and posted).
    There is no available field in the layout. Is there any other way?
    Thanks!

    The other way to know the parked document details
    use tcode: FBV3 - Display
    OR
    you can go to SE16 and enter table name VBKPF -Document Header for Document Parking
    BSTAT = V
    V = parked document
    and ececute u will get the details of parked document.

    Hi.
    Trash the iPhoto Library folder that you created on your Mac, or rename it "iPhoto Library damaged" if you may need some of its contents. Copy the iPhoto Library folder from the backup into your Pictures folder. Hold down the Option key as you launch iPhoto and select "Choose Library" from the dialog. Navigate to the good iPhoto Library folder and open. iPhoto should launch and open your library in exactly the same condition it was in when the backup was made. If all goes well you don't have to import anything.
    If the library is still missing items, you can try a database rebuild. Hold Command and Option while you launch, select the first 3 options in the dialog, and rebuild. This can fix a library with a slightly damaged database.
    If the library still isn't working you may have to create a new library (Option-Launch, select "Create") and import your Originals folder from the backup library. This will give you the pictures back without creating duplicates, but your albums and other items will not be recovered.
    Regards.
