T7-PRO DIO while streaming in AINs

Not sure if this is the right branch, but I haven't found T7 on the list and I am using LISP as programming language so I figured out "other" is the closest in both cases.

I am using 2 TCP connections (one control and another for data in spontaneous mode) to read AINs asynchronously. I expected that while reading those AINs I should be able to use DIO (actually I am trying it with FIO 0,1,2 at this time) to control actuator that moves sample along the sensors. Now it sort of works, but only once as following: if initial state of FIO 0 is 0 then I am seeing to go from 0V to 3.3V upon initial write of 1 into this channel. All subsequent writes of 0 and ones have no effect whatsoever, until I kill data connection and reconnect without streaming.

Could you possibly clarify how am I supposed to control digital I/O while streaming data?

You should be able to read

You should be able to read/write digital I/O like normal while stream mode is running using the digital I/O registers. Make sure your T7s have the latest beta firmware on them.  Beta T7 firmware can be downloaded from here:

https://labjack.com/support/firmware/t7/beta

Use that firmware file in our Kipling application to upgrade your firmware. If that doesn't help resolve the issue, let us know and we will look into the issue further.

Also, we have created a T7 forum. Thanks for making us aware that we were missing that in these new forums.
