The PXI trigger lines from adjacent PXI trigger bus segments can be routed
in either direction across the PXI trigger bridges. Refer to Figure 1-5 for the
connectivity diagram. This allows you to send trigger signals to, and
receive trigger signals from, every slot in the chassis. Static trigger routing
(user-specified line and directional assignments) can be configured through
Measurement & Automation Explorer (MAX). Dynamic routing of triggers
(automatic line assignments) is supported through certain National
Instruments drivers like NI-DAQmx.

Note

Although any trigger line may be routed in either direction, it cannot be routed in

more than one direction at a time.

System Reference Clock

The PXIe-1075 chassis supplies PXI_CLK10, PXIe_CLK100 and
PXIe_SYNC100 to every peripheral slot with an independent driver for
each signal.

An independent buffer (having a source impedance matched to the
backplane and a skew of less than 1 ns between slots) drives PXI_CLK10
to each peripheral slot. You can use this common reference clock signal to
synchronize multiple modules in a measurement or control system.
