How to generate waveform using DAQ assistant?

[ETech101]

Hello! I've found the attached example that generate waveforms but it's done with daqmx. Is there a way to do this in DAQ assistant using 6259 board? Any help would be appreciated..

Thank you very much!!!

Hello kowdtek,

This can definitely be done with the DAQ Assistant, though you will need to create your own waveform to output. Simply choose Generate Signals » Analog Output » Voltage. Then, choose the channels you would like to use to output your signal. If you are using the LabVIEW Express VI "Simulate Signals" you'll want to make sure that the check-box next to the little clock by the Generation Mode is checked, in order to use the sample timing from the Simulate Signals Express VI. If you need more than one channel, you should use one Simulate Signals VI per channel, then use the Merge Signals function to combine them before wiring them to the DAQ Assistant.
