Counter

Gate Signal

The Counter

Gate signal can perform many different operations

depending on the application including starting and stopping the counter,
and saving the counter contents.

Routing a Signal to Counter

Gate

Each counter has independent input selectors for the Counter

Gate signal.

Any of the following signals can be routed to the Counter

Gate input.

•

RTSI <0..7>

•

Input PFI <0..5>

•

ai/ReferenceTrigger

•

ai/StartTrigger

•

ai/SampleClock

•

ai/ConvertClock

•

ao/SampleClock

•

PXI_STAR

In addition, Counter 1 Internal Output or Counter 1 Source can be routed to
Counter 0 Gate. Counter 0 Internal Output or Counter 0 Source can be
routed to Counter 1 Gate.

Some of these options may not be available in some driver software.

Routing Counter

Gate to an Output Terminal

You can route Counter

Gate out to any output PFI <6..9> or RTSI <0..7>

terminal. All PFIs are set to high-impedance at startup.

Counter

Aux Signal

The Counter

Aux signal indicates the first edge in a two-signal

edge-separation measurement.

Routing a Signal to Counter

Aux

Each counter has independent input selectors for the Counter

Aux signal.

Any of the following signals can be routed to the Counter

Aux input.

•

RTSI <0..7>

•

Input PFI <0..5>

•
