For the DT9837A-OEM and DT9837B modules, you can also measure the time between
the A/D sample to the specified edge of the gate input signal, the time between two gate
input signals, or the time between the specified edge of the gate input signal to the A/D
sample by specifying channel 6 (gate counter 2) in the analog input channel list; see
for more information. Configure the Gate.CT2 measurement parameters as follows:
a.
From the
Start Select
combo box, select the signal that you want to use to start the
measurement (
A/D Sample
,
Gate Rising Edge
, or
Gate Falling Edge
).
b.
From the
Stop Select
combo box, select the signal that you want to use to stop the
measurement (
A/D Sample
,
Gate Rising Edge
, or
Gate Falling Edge
).
Note that if you choose to start the measurement using the A/D sample, choose a gate
edge to stop the measurement. Likewise, if you choose to stop the measurement using
the A/D sample, choose a gate edge to start the measurement.
c.
From the
Self Clear
combo box, select
Clear to zero
if you want to return a value of 0
between measurements, or select
Keep last Value
if you want to return the previous
measurement value between readings.

For the Coupling type, select
AC
for AC coupling or
DC
for DC coupling.
11.
For the Current Source, select
Enabled
to enable the internal excitation current source or
Disabled
to disable the internal excitation current source.
Note:
If you enable the use of the internal excitation current source, it is recommended
that you choose AC coupling. Refer to

When you are finished configuring the modules, click
Close
to close the Control Panel.
Note:
If you need to configure these settings programmatically instead of using the Open
