ACH<0..3>–

ACH<0..3>GND

Input

Analog Input Channels 0 through 3 (–)—These pins are
routed to the (–) terminal of the respective channel
amplifier. ACH<2..3>– signals are no connects on the
NI PCI-6111.

DAC0OUT

AOGND

Output

Analog Channel 0 Output—This pin supplies the voltage
output of AO channel 0.

DAC1OUT

AOGND

Output

Analog Channel 1 Output—This pin supplies the voltage
output of AO channel 1.

AOGND

Analog Output Ground—The AO voltages are referenced
to this node.

DGND

Digital Ground—This pin supplies the reference for the
digital signals at the I/O connector as well as the +5 VDC
supply.

DIO<0..7>

DGND

Input or
Output

Digital I/O signals—DIO6 and 7 can control the up/down
signal of general-purpose counters 0 and 1, respectively.

+5 V

DGND

Output

+5 VDC Source—These pins are fused for up to 1 A of
+5 V supply. The fuse is self-resetting.

SCANCLK

DGND

Output

Scan Clock—This pin pulses once for each A/D
conversion when enabled. The low-to-high edge indicates
when the input signal can be removed from the input or
switched to another signal.

EXTSTROBE*

DGND

Output

External Strobe—This output can be toggled under
software control to latch signals or trigger events on
external devices.

PFI0/TRIG1

DGND

Input

Output

PFI0/Trigger 1—As an input, this is either a PFI or the
source for the hardware analog trigger. PFI signals are
explained in the

Timing Connections

section. Refer to

the

Analog Trigger

section of Chapter 3,

Hardware

Overview

, for more information about the hardware

analog trigger.

As an output, this is the TRIG1 signal. In posttrigger
DAQ sequences, a low-to-high transition indicates the
initiation of the DAQ sequence. In pretrigger
applications, a low-to-high transition indicates the
initiation of the pretrigger conversions.

PFI1/TRIG2

DGND

Input

Output

PFI1/Trigger 2—As an input, this is a PFI.

As an output, this is the TRIG2 signal. In pretrigger
applications, a low-to-high transition indicates the
initiation of the posttrigger conversions. TRIG2 is not
used in posttrigger applications.
