The SMB connector on the NI PXI-8109 front panel can connect to or from
any PXI backplane trigger line. A trigger allocation process is needed to
prevent two resources from connecting to the same trigger line, resulting in
the trigger being double-driven and possibly damaging the hardware. At
the time of this manual's publication, this software is not yet available for
Windows. Contact National Instruments for more information.
The PXI Platform Services software installed on your controller and
available on the National Instruments Driver DVD or PXI Platform
Services CD included with your kit automatically identifies your PXI
system components to generate a
your entire PXI system and identify PXI-1 chassis through Measurement &
Automation Explorer (MAX), included with your controller. MAX creates
the file, which defines your PXI system parameters. MAX

also provides an interface to route and reserve triggers so dynamic routing,
through drivers such as DAQmx, avoids double-driving and potentially
damaging trigger lines. For more information about routing and reserving
