GPCTR1_OUT Signal Timing
GPCTR1_UP_DOWN Signal
This signal can be externally input on the DIO7 pin and is not available
as an output on the I/O connector. General-purpose counter 1 counts
down when this pin is at a logic low and counts up at a logic high. This
input can be disabled so that software can control the up-down
functionality and leave the DIO7 pin free for general use. Figure 4-35
shows the timing requirements for the GATE and SOURCE input
signals and the timing specifications for the OUT output signals of your
VXI-MIO Series module.
