Hello Cgifford,
Welcome to National Instruments Forums.
To output your signal to the PFI lines, you can use external connectios between OUT0 and PFI lines. You can also use the backplane to do so by routing into the same RTSI line.
1)
On the SCOPE and FGEN, the name of the terminals are actually “PXI Trigger Line x/RTSIx” but on the 6602 you might need to route the signal using the property:
You can also use the DAQmx route signal which perform the same opperation.
2)
This will depend on the frequency of your pulse train. If this is lower than about 10 ms, then you can probably place this on a loop and start and stop the acquisition every time. If the frequency is higher than this, you will have to use:
- Scripting on the FGEN side (read more)
- MultiRecord Fetch (more information in the scope help file section “Acquisition Functions Reading versus Fetching”).
3)
The short answer is yes. The longer one might depend on how tight you need the synchronization to be (us, ns, ps). For very tight synchronization, you should look into here.
