Chapter 5 Analog Output
You might use AO Sample Clock Timebase if you want to use an external sample clock signal,
but need to divide the signal down. If you want to use an external sample clock signal, but do
not need to divide the signal, then you should use AO Sample Clock rather than AO Sample
Clock Timebase.
Getting Started with AO Applications in Software
You can use an M Series device in the following analog output applications:
• Single-point (on-demand) generation
• Finite generation
• Continuous generation
• Waveform generation
You can perform these generations through programmed I/O, interrupt, or DMA data transfer
mechanisms. Some of the applications also use start triggers and pause triggers.
Note For more information about programming analog output applications and
triggers in software, refer to the NI-DAQmx Help or the LabVIEW Help.
