In NI-DAQmx, National Instruments has revised terminal names so they are easier to understand and
more consistent among National Instruments hardware and software products. This column shows the
NI-DAQmx terminal names (Traditional NI-DAQ (Legacy) terminal names are shown in parentheses).
M Series
Signal
PFI 0/P1.0
On E Series devices, as an input, this terminal can either
be a PFI input or the analog trigger input.
On M Series devices, as an input, this terminal can only
be a PFI input. Analog triggers use the APFI <0,1>
terminals.
E Series devices can drive this terminal with the
AI START TRIG signal.
M Series devices, as an output, can drive this terminal
with the AI START TRIG signal. You also can route
many other internal timing signals to this terminal.
On M Series devices, you also can use this terminal as
the digital I/O signal, P1.0.
Also refer to Chapter 8, PFI.
P0.6
On both E Series and M Series devices, these terminals
are digital I/O signals. You can individually configure
P0.7
each signal as an input or output.
On E Series devices, P0.6 and P0.7 also can control the
up/down signal of general-purpose Counters 0 and 1,
respectively.
On M Series devices, you have to use one of the PFI
terminals to control the up/down signal of
general-purpose Counters 0 and 1.
APFI 0
On E Series devices, this terminal is the external
reference input for the AO circuitry.
On M Series devices, this terminal can be used as the
external reference input for the AO circuitry, the
external offset for the AO circuitry, or the analog trigger
input. These functions are not available on all devices.
Refer to the specifications for your device.
Note that this terminal is a no connect on some E Series
and M Series devices.
PFI 15/P2.7
On E Series devices, this is one of the D GND terminals.
On M Series devices, this is the PFI 15/P2.7 terminal.
