Using a Digital Source

To use ao/PauseTrigger, specify a source and a polarity. The source can be
one of the following signals:

Input PFI <0..5>

RTSI <0..7>

PXI_STAR

The source also can be one of several other internal signals on your DAQ
device. Refer to Device Routing in MAX in the NI-DAQmx Help or the
LabVIEW 8.x Help for more information.

You also can specify whether the samples are paused when ao/PauseTrigger
is at a logic high or low level.

Routing AO Pause Trigger Signal to an Output
Terminal

You can route ao/PauseTrigger out to RTSI <0..7>.

AO Sample Clock Signal

Use the AO Sample Clock (ao/SampleClock) signal to initiate AO samples.
Each sample updates the outputs of all of the DACs. You can specify an
internal or external source for ao/SampleClock. You also can specify
whether the DAC update begins on the rising edge or falling edge of
ao/SampleClock.
