PXI6602 & PXIe4497 Sync Sampling with 2 Counter Tasks

Hello,

I've searched this board and read a lot of posts this week and still cannot find a solution for my problem. I'm trying to sample AI channels from a PXIe-4497 and syncronize that aquistion with a CI angular position and CI frequency task. My goal was to sample angular position and speed with the same rate as the AI channels. Referencing the 4497 SampleClock works for one task, but when I try to reference this same clock for the second CI task I get an error about "Invalid timing type for this channel". Shouldn't it be possible to reference the 4497 SampleClock for both CI tasks? I've read several posts about using a generated counter to use as a clock for CI tasks, I haven't tried this because referencing the 4497 Clock should be a simple way to sync both CI tasks to the AI card's sampling.

There isn't anything complicated about my setup, simply using DAQmx create channel,timing,start and read. I have LV2013 and a PXIe-1082 chassis.

I'll keep reading though the 6602 timing posts, but if anyone has suggestions please reply.

Thank You.
