Problems with clocked digital output using NI DAQ (R2013a)

Hi,

I need to create digital outputs at defined time intervals and I do not want to rely on software timing. I am using a NI PCI-MIO-16E-4 card which has 2 counter channels (in addition to the DI/O channels) and I am working with the Data Aquisition Toolbox Version3.3 in R2013a.

Every time I add a digital channel, I get following warning: “Warning: A channel that does not support clocked sampling was added to the session. Clocked operations using startForeground and startBackground will be disabled. Only on-demand operations using inputSingleScan and outputSingleScan can be done.”

Consistently, every time I try to do something that requires clocked operation functionality, I get an error, e.g. “Rate cannot exceed 0 in the current configuration.”

What could possibly go wrong here? Unfortunately, my knowledge on controlling NI devices via Matlab is not very deep.

Thank you very much for your help.
