IMAQ D100DAL Cable Installation Guide
Triggering
If you plan to connect external trigger signals to your IMAQ device, you
can use either the IMAQ D2504 cable or your own trigger interface cable.
If building your own cable, see Figure 3 for pin-out information. For more
information on the D2504 cable, see the IMAQ 2504 Cable Installation
Guide.
To connect external trigger signals to your IMAQ device, insert the trigger
interface cable into the trigger connector of the IMAQ D100DAL cable,
ensuring correct polarity. Tighten the thumbscrews as necessary.
