Figure 11-3. Simultaneous MIO X Series Device Analog Trigger Circuitry
You must specify a source and an analog trigger type. The source can be
either an APFI <0,1> terminal or an analog input channel.
APFI <0,1> Terminals
When you use either APFI <0,1> terminal as an analog trigger, you
should drive the terminal with a low impedance signal source (less than
1kΩ source impedance). If APFI <0,1> are left unconnected, they are
susceptible to crosstalk from adjacent terminals, which can cause false
triggering. Note that the APFI <0,1> terminals also can be used for other
functions such as the AO External Reference input, as described in the
AO Reference Selection section of Chapter 5, Analog Output.
Analog Input Channels
Refer to the Analog Input Channels on MIO X Series Devices or Analog
Input Channels on Simultaneous MIO X Series Devices section, depending
on your device.
