I'm trying to generate a RS-422 PPS signal using the PXI-8431/8 PXI board, LabWindows/CVI and the standard CVI library functions but I can't find a way of producing a signal that remains HI persistently for X number of ms. I realize that using the PXI-6602 would be an ideal solution but for my case I'm relying on the RT OS to maintain determinism. Do you know of a white paper or discussion thread that might describe a reliable way of doing this with the CVI functions and serial boards I have?

What is a "PPS signal"?
Since you are asking about LabWindows/CVI, you might have better luck asking your question in the LabWindows forum rather than the LabVIEW forum.

PPS -> Pulse Per Second
Basically a periodic square wave of ~100ms duration.
I didn't realize this was the LabView forum. Thanks for the tip.
