Waveform Output Control Window with

DACO, DAC1, P3 and Digital Channels Selected

To use the DACs for programmed control, place an analog output icon on your worksheet by selecting
Modules

Input/Outputs Analog Output.

The analog output icon provides the ability to connect software control icons to the channels, as long as the
DACs have not been selected for waveform control.


Using P3 Counter Inputs

Because the communication with the P3 devices is synchronous, using a P3 counter is simply a matter of
adding the counter input icon to your worksheet. Within that icon, you have the ability to configure the
counters as four 16-bit counters, or as two 32-bit counters by making a selection in the Channel Setup
window.

P3 counters can be configured to:

• count pulses
• totalize pulses
• calculate a frequency measurement
