Testing Counter Function

Click the Counter Tab to bring its test panel forth. The counter channel
(Channel 0) offers the users two options: Event counting and Pulse
out. If you select Event counting, you need first to connect your clock
source to pin CNT0_CLK, and the counter will start counting after the
pin CNT0_GATE is triggered. If you select Pulse Out, the clock source
will be output to pin CNT0_OUT. You can configure the Pulse Fre-
quency by the scroll bar right below it.

Only after your card device is properly set up, configured and tested,
can the device installation procedure be counted as complete. After
the device installation procedure is completed, you can safely proceed
to the next chapter, Signal Connections.
