    Each channel on the PCI-1714 cards can measure bipolar analog input signals ranging within ± 5 V FSR, and can be set up with different input ranges respectively. The sampling rate can be up to 30 MS/s for PCI-1714 and 10 MS/s for PCI-1714UL.

  • Page 37: Pacer Acquisition Mode

    4.2.3 Post-Trigger Acquisition Mode Post-trigger allows you to acquire data based on a trigger event. Posttrig- ger acquisition starts when the PCI-1714 cards detect the trigger event and stop when the preset number of post-trigger samples has been acquired or when you stop the operation. This trigger mode must work with the DMA data transfer mode enabled.

  • Page 38: Delay Trigger Acquisition Mode

    The delay number of sample ranges from 2 to 65535 as defined in DMA counter. Delay-trigger acquisition starts when the PCI-1714 cards detect the trig- ger event and stop when the specified number of A/D samples has been acquired or when you stop the operation.

  • Page 39: About Trigger Acquisition Mode

    Once a trigger event happens, the on-going data acquisition will continue until the designated amount of samples have been reached. When the PCI-1714 cards detect the selected about trigger event, the cards keeps acquiring the preset number of samples, and keep the total number of samples on the FIFO.

  • Page 41: Internal A/D Sample Clock

    The external sample clock 0 is a sine wave signal source which is con- verted to a TTL signal inside PCI-1714 cards. This signal is AC coupled. The input impedance of the external clock 0 is 50 ohms and the input level is 5 volts peak-to-peak.

  • Page 42: Trigger Sources

    4.4.2 External Digital (TTL) Trigger For analog input operations, an external digital trigger event occurs when PCI-1714 cards detect either a rising or falling edge on the External A/D TTL trigger input signal from screw terminal EXT_TRIG on the ADAM- 3909 screw terminal board.
