Trigger Input - Measurement Computing USB-2020 User Manual

USB-2020 User's Guide
An external pull-up resistor can be used to pull the DIO bit up to a voltage that exceeds the internal 5 V pull-up
voltage (15 V maximum). Be aware that this would place the 47k internal pull up resistor in a parallel
resistance configuration that could offset the logic high voltage level.

Trigger input

Both the BNC connector and the
TRIG IN
configure through software.
An analog scan can have a trigger or a gate, but not both. For example, you cannot use an analog trigger and use
the BNC connector to gate at the same time.
TRIG IN
A trigger or gate can be digital or analog.
Digital triggers can be configured for rising or falling edge, or for high or low level.

Analog triggers can be configured for software-selectable high or low level, or for rising or falling edge

with software-selectable hysteresis.
Digital gates can be configured for high or low level.

Analog gates can be configured for software-selectable high or low level, or for in or out of software-

selectable window.
