Hi there,

If you want to do the edge counting for any purpose

You can try with DAQ assisant function and setting the Counter Input section as Edge Counting

Or with the more flexible DAQmx API:

Are you going to measure the digital count for 4 Axes sepearately? Because there's only one counter available on MyDAQ device:
