Thankyou Bill for the answer. It will be a few days before I start this project but wanted to head off any problems I could prior to starting it. Will there be any need for semaphores or other synchronization methods to prevent collisions with these vi=92s at the driver level? Thanks again for

about but wonder if you could do the same with the time zone. Then with the combination of the DST value and the Time zone differences you could determine on first read what adjustments are needed. Hope this might help you. Randall T.

Digital I/O with multiple SCXI 1162 HV

this acquisition. I have used one 1162 in similar applications but have not tried multiple 1162=92s in the same system. I need to read these ports as quickly as possible so would prefer to only configure the ports once then read continuously. Any help will be appreciated. Thanks Randall T.

You could use the get queue status to return the array of elements in the queue then search the array then if found remove the elements you wish to remove. The flush queue could be used to remove all items from the queue then index the new array of information back into the queue. The flush queue

Both of the modules you mentioned have built in cjc sensors. You mentioned the 1303 terminal block then later called it a 1300. The 1303 should have a more accurate cjc reference than the 1300. I have not used the 1112 but since it is designed specifically for Thermocouple measurements they
