Default Counter Terminals
By default, NI-DAQmx routes the counter/timer inputs and outputs to the
PFI pins, shown in Table 7-4.
You can use these defaults or select other sources and destinations for the
counter/timer signals in NI-DAQmx. Refer to Connecting Counter Signals
in the NI-DAQmx Help or the LabVIEW 8.x Help for more information
about how to connect your signals for common counter measurements and
generations. M Series default PFI lines for counter functions are listed in
Physical Channels in the NI-DAQmx Help or the LabVIEW 8.x Help.
