    3.3.3 Analog Trigger An analog trigger is generated when one of AI input signal CH0 to CH3 meets the trigger condition. The trigger conditions for analog triggers as shown in Figure 3-6. Rising Edge Trigger This trigger event occurs when the analog input signal changes from a voltage lower than the specified trigger level to one higher than the specified trigger level.
  • Page 42: Pxi Trigger Bus

    The interconnected bus provided by PXI Trigger Bus supports easy synchronization of multiple modules. When configured as input, the PXIe-69834 serves as a slave mod-ule and will wait to commence signal acquisition until receiving a trigger from the PXI Trigger Bus. When configured as output, the PXIe-69834 serves as a master module and can output trigger to one of the PXI Trigger Bus.
  • Page 43: Trigger Modes

    Post-trigger acquisition is applicable when data is to be collected after the trigger event, as shown. When the operation starts, PXIe-69834 waits for a trigger event. Once the trigger signal is received, acquisition begins. Data is generated from ADC and transferred to system memory continuously.

    Leading EDGE COMPUTING To achieve sampling rates other than 80MS/s, the scan interval counter (ScanIntrv) needs to be specified. For example, if the scan interval counter is set to 2, the equivalent sampling rate is 80MS/s/2=40MS/s. If 3, the equivalent sampling rate is 80MS/s/3= 26.66MS/s, and vice versa.
