We may need to record position periodically of 8 motors (at the same time that we sample corresponding analog inputs). It looks like the 4 built-in counters limits the chassis to 4 encoders. Is this correct? I am familiar with PLC counter modules that handle the high-speed counting, and then the CPU periodically poles for an update of the total counts. Is this how the NI 9401 card would work?
