Re: NI-6111 and Comedi

Dear Dave,

I am happy to confirm from my side that the c++ sample code we have
does work flawlessly for ai with both my 6110 and 6111 boards (There
is a little offset, which is most likely due to the boards not being
calibrated). I suppose, the difficulties I was experiencing with my
6111 initially were most likely due to the fact that I did not take
the power down on the host PC after experimenting with comedi. 

After the reboot I have not seen a single failure of the example
programs, which is certainly much better than any manipulation I tried
on comedi so far (none of them did prevent errors with certainty).

Do you think, the sequence of register accesses from the stand-alone
examples could/should be merged into comedi? If so, how? - What I like
about the examples is that they have the register accesses parceled
out nicely into functions (e.g., for resetting ai, board
configuration, MSC clock configuration, clearing the FIFO, board
personalization, ...) Would it make sense to have such functions in
comedi as well? Do you have suggestions as to what functional blocks
of a revised sequence should be?

Thank you very much in advance,
Rolf
