AO/AI to DAQmx questions

[GSR]

Dear all,

I need to rewrite a program which use the traditional DAQ vi. I could not find those VI in my LabVIEW 8.5, but I need to understand the meaning of those VI to rewrite the program using DAQmx. Here are my questions

In A, what is the meaning of AO config with AO and AO1 input? Should I use two separate DAQmx Create Channel VI to replace "A" ?

Ignore B

In C, what DAQmx VI should use to replace singal update VI?

In D, what DAQmx VI should use to replace AI S-scan VI?

In E, I don't understand why Trigger config is connected with the AO write (output related). Does the Trigger config VI control the AO write??

Hi zmarcoz

If the VIs are not installed on your system you can download the Traditional NI DAQ drivers from http://joule.ni.com/nidu/cds/view/p/id/570/lang/en' target="_blank">NI Support .

The last drivers produced were version 7.4.4 in 07 as they have been superseded by DAQmx.
