Are you still using the subdevice index 10 ? How did you check that it
was correct? With my NI6221 board, the GCPT counter seems to be
located at index 11 and the subdevice index are static (unless there
is a bug).
# cat /proc/analogy/00-analogy_ni_pcimio
-- Subdevices --
| idx | type
| 00 | Analog input subdevice
| 01 | Analog output subdevice
| 02 | Digital input/output subdevice
| 03 | Unused subdevice
| 04 | Unused subdevice
| 05 | Calibration subdevice
| 06 | Memory subdevice
| 07 | Digital input/output subdevice
| 08 | Unused subdevice
| 09 | Serial subdevice
| 10 | Unused subdevice
| 11 | Counter subdevice
| 12 | Counter subdevice
| 13 | Counter subdevice
