Why are You messing it all up? In INI file You load custom.hal file, but in that You tell - look in analog-in.hal file. And then all the stuff is hidden in analog-in.hal file... Any particular reason not to specify analog-in.hal file already in INI file or at least copy/paste all the commands in custom.hal file? I am telling this, because it is the first time I see "source" command in HAL. I do not remember seeing it in docs too, so I have no idea, how it works or how it affects the performance. The same goes for "alias pins" in Your main HAL file. Have You tried routing the frequency input directly to 5i23 card? IMHO that way You would check, if You are exceeding opto-isolators' capabilities.
