Software Configuration
Triggers are mapped into and out of your NI VXIpc-882 though software
using the following steps.
1. Open MAX.
2. Find your device under Devices and Interfaces.
3. Right click on your device and select Properties.
4. Click on the Signal Mappings Tab.
5. From each TTL Trigger select Into the Frame, Out of the Frame,
or None.
6. Click OK and re-run the VXI Resource Manager (Resman) for the
changes to take effect.
Note Do not map the same trigger out of the frame on more than one device on the trigger
bus. This will cause the bus to be driven by more than one device. Protection circuitry
prevents this from causing physical damage, however your setup will not function
properly.
