Counter Signal Routing and Clock Generation
The following example shows how to use Table 5-3 and the Device Routes table in MAX.
Assuming you are using Counter 2 for an edge-counting application, and are looking for all
possible signals that can be used for the Pause Trigger.
1.
Note that the Pause Trigger is set by the Pause.DigLvl.Src property in DAQmx. Refer to
the
section in Chapter 3,
, for more information.
2.
Check Table 5-3 for Pause.DigLvl.Src. Table 5-3 indicates that this property is routed to the
Ctr2Gate input of Counter 2.
3.
Launch the Device Routes table per the instructions in
. The column
labeled
/<device name>/Ctr2Gate
lists all signals that can be routed to Ctr2Gate, and
those are therefore all the signals that can be used as the Pause Trigger.
Synchronizing Multiple Devices
Refer to the following sections for information about synchronizing multiple NI 6612 devices.
PXI Express Devices
On PXI Express systems, you can synchronize devices to PXIe_CLK100. In this application the
PXI Express chassis acts as the initiator. Each PXI Express module routes PXIe_CLK100 to its
external reference clock.
Another option in PXI Express systems is to use PXI_STAR. The Star Trigger controller device
acts as the initiator and drives PXI_STAR with a clock signal. Each target device routes
PXI_STAR to its external reference clock.
