counter on advantage pci1710 & pci1711

Hi all,

I have been trying to use the counters on the two boards (advantage pci1710 and 1711). As I understand in the doc's both should have counter functions in the drivers. Or have I misunderstood? Anyhow, when running ./info I find that 1710 have a counter subdev whereas 1711 have not. Since I have both types of the cards it does not matter much.
I have tied cnt0_gate to +5, cnt0_out to ground and connected a ttl generator to cnt0_clk. Running ./inp -s 4 gives repeatedly the same value. After ./outp -s 4 -c 0 0 I again run ./inp -s 4. The counter seems to run but the values are any number between 0 65500 and do not follow the generator.
Where am I completely wrong?
I would be very grateful for some information on this problem!

Best regards!
Per Arlock
