Hi!
I'm trying to trigger a HS camera using myDAQ. At the moment I'm not trying to do anything fancy, just take a single picture that I've triggered using LabView. I have the camera wired to the DIO and I'm using the DAQ assistant VI, but nothings happening.
Thanks!

Hi Acolel,
You sent one of the DIO lines high and then nothing happened? What do you mean by nothing happened? Can you confirm the line went high without using the camera? I would suggest going into MAX and using a test panel to send a line high to see what your camera does. This will isolate this down to either a LabVIEW programming issue, a myDAQ issue, or a camera issue.

Hey Bobby!
So I used the DAQ Assistant with a single Digital line out. The thing is it'll work once, but if I try to run the program again it never works (unless I unplug the DAQ and plug it back in). I'm guessing I need to have something reset the DAQ at the end of the program? I tried just wiring a clear task and that didn't help. Ideally I want to put the trigger in a loop.
Thanks!

That makes a lot of sense actually. So if I'm using DAQ assistant to send it high, how would I write it low?
Thanks!
