Counter/totalizer trigger
Single channel analog hardware trigger: The first analog input channel in the scan is the analog trigger
channel.
Input signal range: -10 V to +10 V maximum
Trigger level: Programmable (12-bit resolution)
Latency: 350 ns typical
Accuracy: ±0.5% of reading, ±2 mV offset maximum
Noise: 2 mV RMS typical
Single channel analog software trigger: The first analog input channel in the scan is the analog trigger
channel.
Input signal range: Anywhere within range of the trigger channel
Trigger level: Programmable (16-bit resolution)
Latency: One scan period maximum
External-single channel digital trigger (TTL trigger input):
Input signal range: -15 V to +15 V maximum
Trigger level: TTL-level sensitive
Minimum pulse width: 50 ns high, 50 ns low
Latency: One scan period maximum
Digital pattern triggering: 8-bit or 16-bit pattern triggering on any of the digital ports. Programmable for
trigger on equal, not equal, above, or below a value. Individual bits can be masked for "don’t care"
condition.
Latency: One scan period maximum

Counter/totalizer triggering: Counter/totalizer inputs can trigger an acquisition. User can select to
trigger on a frequency or on total counts that are equal, not equal, above, or below a value, or
within/outside of a window rising/falling edge.
Latency: One scan period maximum
