STARTSCAN Signal
Any PFI pin can externally input the STARTSCAN signal, which is
available as an output on the PFI7/STARTSCAN pin. Refer to Figures 4-17
and 4-18 for the relationship of STARTSCAN to the DAQ sequence.
As an input, the STARTSCAN signal is configured in the edge-detection
mode. You can select any PFI pin as the source for STARTSCAN and
configure the polarity selection for either rising or falling edge. The
selected edge of the STARTSCAN signal initiates a scan. The sample
interval counter starts if you select internally triggered CONVERT*.
As an output, the STARTSCAN signal reflects the actual start pulse that
initiates a scan. This is true even if the starts are being externally triggered
by another PFI. You have two output options. The first is an active high
pulse with a pulse width of 50 to 100 ns, which indicates the start of the
scan. The second action is an active high pulse that terminates at the start
of the last conversion in the scan, which indicates a scan in progress.
