Figure 3–32: Selecting Module Formations
To trigger one module when an event occurs on another module or to cross-trig-
ger two acquisition modules, follow these steps:
1. Form a cluster of two modules appropriate to your application in the Cluster
Definition overlay of the System Configuration menu.
2. Define a signal in the Signal Definition overlay of the Cluster Setup menu.
The signal should be an output signal from one module (92A96-1) and an
input signal to the other module (92A96-2).
To cross trigger two modules, you need to define two signals. Define one
signal as an output from 92A96-1 and as an input to 92A96-2. Define a
second signal as an output from 92A96-2 as and an input to 92A96-1.
