To use the Large Range with 2 Counters method, configure the following:
•
DAQmx Create channel (CI-Frequency)
—Use this VI or function to create the channel.
•
CI.Freq.MeasMeth
—Set this property to Large Range with 2 Counters.
Note that this measurement method requires two counters:
•
Counter 0 paired with Counter 1
•
Counter 2 paired with Counter 3
•
Counter 4 paired with Counter 5
•
Counter 6 paired with Counter 7
By default, the counters measure the frequency on a default PFI terminal (refer to Chapter 5,
Counter Signal Routing and Clock Generation
, for more information) and use an onboard
100 MHz clock as the timebase. To change the signals used for this measurement, configure the
following:
•
CI.Freq.Term
—The signal-to-measure comes from an input terminal. To change the
signal-to-measure, set this property to a different terminal.
•
CI.CtrTimebase.Src
—To change the signals used as the counter timebase, set this
property to a different terminal.
High Frequency with 2 Counters
This measurement method requires two counters: Counter N and Counter M.
For this measurement method, the devices uses counter M to generate a pulse of duration T. The
device routes this pulse to Counter N. Counter N then counts the number of periods (
P
) of the
signal-to-measure during the pulse.
If the frequency of the signal-to-measure is
fx,
the duration of the pulse is given by:
Solving for
fx
returns the frequency of the signal-to-measure:
