Drive SampleClock to PFI signal as a sanity check.

Hello! :)

I am doing some timing work and I would like to drive the internal sample clock on an NI USB-6259 board out to a PFI connection so I can sanity-check it using an oscilloscope.

I can find good MATLAB documentation on how to change the SampleClock to an external one, but I can't find out how to drive the internal SampleClock to an output.

How do you drive the internal SampleClock to a PFI output?

Thank you!

Hi Adam,

If you are uisng Session-based interface, you can use the R2012a prerelease and use the function

addClockConnection('Dev1/PFI1','external','ScanClock');

this would have the scan clock available at PFI1 of Dev1 for external use.

Hope that helps,
