Figure 8-33. Duplicate Count Prevention Example
Even if the Source pulses are long, the cou nter increments only once for
each Source pulse.
Normally, the counter value and Counter n Internal Output signals change
synchronously to the Source signal. With duplicate count prevention, the
counter value and Counter n Internal Output signals change synchronously
to the 80 MHz Timebase.
Enabling Duplicate Count Prevention in NI-DAQmx
Duplicate count prevention is automatically used with USB-621x devices.
Disabling duplicate count prevention is not supported.
