Hello,
Currently I have a NI 9411 module in a cDAQ 9178 chassis. I am using 2 of the counters to read frequency measurements.
From the NI 9411 pinout diagram (see pdf file attached to this post), these are the connections I made:
CTR 0 SRC, pin 1 to COM/ground
CTR 0 GATE, pin 2 to first frequency signal
CTR 1 SRC, pin 6 to COM/ground
CTR 1 GATE, pin 7 to second frequency signal
The problem is now I'd like to use the 3rd and 4th counters in my cDAQ 9178 chassis, but I am confused how to wire
in the 3rd and 4th frequency signals, because CTR2 GATE is pin 1 and CTR3 GATE is pin 6. Can I change the pin assignments
to use the other pins in the NI 9411 module for counter frequency measurements? I haven't figured out how to do that in MAX
configuration.
Thanks,
Anna
