Problem: What values can be used for the initial delay for my counter generated pulse? Solution: The minimum value for initial delay is limited by the minimum value that can be loaded into a load register on the DAQ-STC or NI-TIO counter chips, which is 2. Load registers are used in pulse generation by counting down from their loaded value to the terminal count, at which point the output is toggled. The value stored in one load register determines the delay of the pulse, while another value stored in another load register determines the width. The initial delay is defaulted to 2, if no value is entered for initial delay, or if values <2 are entered. The maximum value for initial delay is limited by the size of load register in which the value is stored. The load register used to store initial delay is a 32-bit register. Thus, the maximum value allowed is 232 (4294967296). Related Links: TIO Series Help DAQ-STC Technical Reference Manual Attachments:
