LXI Trigger Bus

The LXI (LAN eXtensions for Instrumentation) Trigger Bus is a hardware bus providing eight trigger channels using M-LVDS (low-voltage differential signaling). Cables connect various instruments together in a daisy chain or star configuration. Any instrument in a cluster can send or receive triggers on any of the channels.

NOTE	For more information about the LXI Trigger Bus and LAN triggering, refer to the following
