When using setpoints to control any of the DAC outputs, increased latencies may occur
if attempting to stream data to DACs or pattern digital output at the same time. The
increased latency can be as long as the period of the DAC pacer clock. For these
reasons, avoid streaming outputs on any DAC or pattern digital output when using
setpoints to control DACs.

Note

: Setpoints can be used for making quick updates to DACs, timers, and P2C digital outputs.

How fast an output can be updated is determined by the following three factors:

o

scan rate

o

synchronous sampling mode

o

type of output to be updated

Reference Note:

If your device supports setpoint configuration, refer to you hardware user’s manual for

discussions of setpoint configuration and examples. Several examples include output

channels.
