Simultaneous Buffered
Waveform Acquisition
and Generation
In Chapter 7,
Buffering Your Way through Waveform Acquisition
, you
learned how to acquire multiple data points via an intermediate software
buffer. In Chapter 12,
Buffering Your Way through Waveform Generation
,
you learned how to generate multiple points of data by first writing them
to a software buffer. This chapter describes how to perform buffered
waveform acquisition and generation simultaneously on the same
DAQ device.
Using E-Series MIO Boards
E-series devices, such as the PCI-MIO-16E-1, have separate counters
dedicated to analog input and analog output timing. For this reason, they
are the easiest choice for simultaneous input/output.
