Re: Digital Out sequencing

Let me rephrase my question... b/c that last one was rather stupid.

As I stated, I need digtial on/off at intervals, would it be best to use 
a software sleep()-style call, or would it be better (i.e. more 
accurate) to use a INSN_NWAIT, or something else, in terms of accuracy? 
My project needs accuaracy to the 100 microsecond level, if possible.

Thanks again,
David Hall
