Continuous Buffered Implicit Pulse Train Generation; Finite Buffered Sample Clocked Pulse Train Generation - National Instruments DAQ X Series User Manual

Chapter 7 Counters
Table 7-6 and Figure 7-34 detail a finite implicit generation of three
samples.

Continuous Buffered Implicit Pulse Train Generation

This function generates a continuous train of pulses with variable idle and
active times. Instead of generating a set number of data samples and
stopping, a continuous generation continues until you stop the operation.
Each point you write generates a single pulse. All points are generated back
to back to create a user defined pulse train.
Finite Buffered Sample Clocked Pulse Train
Generation
This function generates a predetermined number of pulse train updates.
Each point you write defines pulse specifications that are updated with each
sample clock. When a sample clock occurs, the current pulse (idle followed
by active) finishes generation and the next pulse updates with the next
sample specifications.
Note When the last sample is generated, the pulse train continues to generate with these
specifications until the task is stopped.
