TB-2705 PXI Terminal Block

SCANCLK

DGND

Output

Scan Clock—This terminal pulses 
once for each A/D conversion in the 
scanning modes when enabled. The 
low-to-high edge indicates when you 
can remove the input signal from the 
input or switched to another signal.

EXTSTROBE

DGND

Output

External Strobe—This output is used 
for controlling SCXI modules. 

PFI0/TRIG1

DGND

Input

PFI0/Trigger 1—As an input, this 
is either one of the programmable 
function inputs (PFIs) or the source for 
the hardware analog trigger. For more 
information on PFI signals, see the 

PXI E Series User Manual

.

Output

As an output, this is the TRIG1 signal. 
In posttrigger data acquisition 
sequences, a low-to-high transition 
indicates the initiation of the 
acquisition sequence. In pretrigger 
applications, a low-to-high transition 
indicates the initiation of the pretrigger 
conversions.

PFI1/TRIG2

DGND

Input

PFI1/Trigger 2—As an input, this is 
one of the PFIs.

Output

As an output, this is the TRIG2 signal. 
In pretrigger applications, a 
low-to-high transition indicates the 
initiation of the posttrigger 
conversions. TRIG2 is not used in 
posttrigger applications.

PFI2/CONVERT

DGND

Input

PFI2/Convert—As an input, this is one 
of the PFIs.

Output

As an output, this is the CONVERT* 
signal. A high-to-low edge on 
CONVERT* indicates the start of an 
A/D conversion.
