by the PXI specification. The PXES-2780 chassis can accom-
modate a PXI Express system controller that occupies width up

expansion slots allow the controller to expand to the left to pre-
vent the controller from using up peripheral slots.

The System Timing (ST) slot is Slot 10, providing one dedi-
cated single-ended star trigger and 3 pairs of differential star
trigger lines to each peripheral slot. Routing of single ended
star trigger signals (PXI_STAR) and differential star trigger sig-
nals (PXIe_DSTAR) are as follows.
