Overview
This example demonstrates how to utilize the digital trigger on the DAQ Signal Accessory in order to trigger an external device. The DAQ Signal Accessory does not contain any digital output thus a workaround is needed.
Description
This VI generates a pulse train of 1 or more pulses on the counter when the trigger button is pushed. Therefore it is now possible to route the output of this counter to an external device requiring a trigger.

Hello,
I am studying in final year of study in mechanical engineering and have a final project studies to be undertaken. I want to make an acquisition on synchronous channels with LabVIEW and do not know what function is best suited. In fact, I do synchronization between a machine and camera. That is, each signal level of the machine, the camera must be triggered automatically in order to make a screenshot. The frequency of the machine is 5Hz. I thought about using a capture card that will allow me to convert the analog signal from the machine into a digital signal (input from the camera). The problem I'm experiencing right now is: How do the program in LabVIEW that will make the automatic. It's very urgent. It only remains for me only two weeks to finalize the project.
Thank you for your reply. Please contact me in my personal adress: cheikhba02@gmail.com
