Accesing PXI_TRIG0 - PXI_TRIG7

[jsempsr]

I'm trying to access the PXI_TRIG0 - PXI_TRIG7 on the PXI backplane using a 5105 digitizer. Is there an optimal technique for doing this? Something as simple as a toggle control on a front panel that switches PXI_TRIG0 hi and lo would be great. I've tried several approaches without much luck. Thanks.

Howdy jsempsr,

The 5105 can indeed send signals to and receive signals from the PXI_Trig lines. What end goal/functionality do you want to achieve here? I don't believe it's as simple as selecting a PXI_Trig line and setting that line to high or low; rather, you have to route a particular signal to a PXI_Trig line and then have that signal go high or low.

For a list of signals that you can send to the PXI_Trig lines, you may refer to the High-Speed Digitizers Help under the section NI PXI-5105 Routing Matrix. This Help document installs with NI-SCOPE. An online version of this document can also be seen here.
