Connecting Analog Output Signals
The AO signals are AO <0..
n

AO <0..
n
> are the AO channels. AOGND is the ground reference signal for
the AO channels.

Analog Output Connections
Digital I/O
You can configure the NI 78
xx
R DIO lines individually for either input or
output. When the system powers on, the DIO lines are at high impedance.
To set another power-on state, you can configure the NI 78
xx
R to load a VI
when the system powers on. The VI can then set the DIO lines to any
power-on state.
Connecting Digital I/O Signals
The DIO signals on the NI 78
xx
R RDIO connectors are DGND and
