The following flowchart illustrates the main steps required in an NI-DAQmx application to generate voltage. Alternatively, you can configure a task for generating voltage using the DAQ Assistant.

Tip   To increase performance, especially when multiple samples are written, include the Start function/VI and Stop function/VI in your application. In the previous flowchart, the Start function/VI would come just after you write samples, and Stop would come just before you clear the task.

Generating voltage is an example of an analog output measurement. Refer to Analog Output Programming Flowcharts for additional flowcharts that can help you create an application.
