computer. If you are using the NI PXI-6534 or NI PXI-6533 in a PXI
chassis, RTSI lines, known as the PXI trigger bus, are part of the backplane.
In addition, a phase-locked loop (PLL) circuit accomplishes the
synchronization of multiple NI PXI-6534 devices or other PXI devices
which support PLL synchronization by allowing these devices to all lock to
the same reference clock present on the PXI backplane. Refer to the
Phase-Locked Loop Circuit (NI PXI-6534 Only)
Hardware Considerations, for more information.
Detailed NI 653X specifications are in Appendix A, Specifications.
In addition to controlling and monitoring relay-type applications, the
NI 653X also provides two timing/handshaking controllers, named
Group 1 and Group 2, for high-speed data transfer. Refer to the
Control Lines as Extra Unstrobed Data Lines
