the PCLD-8712 screw terminal board. The trigger signal is TTL- compatible.

qAnalog Threshold Trigger

For analog input operations, an analog trigger event occurs when the PCI-1712/1712L detects a transition from above a threshold level to below a threshold level (falling edge), or a transition from below a threshold level to above a threshold level (rising edge). User should connect analog signals from external device or internal analog output channel on board to external screw terminal ANA_TRG on the PCLD- 8712 screw terminal board.

On the PCI-1712/1712L, the threshold level is set using a dedicated 8- bit DAC; the hysteresis is fixed at 50 mV. Using software, you can program the threshold level by writing a voltage value to this DAC; this value can range from -10 V to +10 V.
