Hello!
I am simply looking to see if some LV code already exists to perform a loopback test on the PCI-6541. It doesn't specifically have to be the 6541 DWG/Analyzer. The general idea to generate and acquire a digital waveform already exists in some LV examples (i.e., Dynamic Generation and Acquisition-Demo.vi). I'd like to extend that example to generate a 20 period 8 MHz 50% duty cycle TTL pulse train on a DIO pin, and acquire and compare the generated pulse train (one dimensional array of integer data or digital waveform [WDT] data type) on another DIO pin to verify signal integrity.
Thank you in advance for your efforts!
Sincerely
dan

Hi Dan,
Try this example. You may have to modify it some but this should be mostly what you need. I hope this helps!

Hi Dustin!
I've managed some progress by modifying the Dynamic Generation & Acquisition-Demo VI, and creating a TTL pattern generator wired to the niHSDIO Write Named Waveform VI. I eliminated the niHSDIO Export Signal & Configure Trigger VIs since I'm generating the custom signal pattern from LV.
Thanks for your reply!
