PFI5/UPDATE* DGND Input
Output
PFI5/Updateasan input, this is one of the PFIs.
Asan output, this is the UPDATE* (AOUpdate) signal.A
high-to-lowedge on UPDATE*indicates that the analog
outputprimary group is being updated for the 6024E or
6025E.
PFI6/WFTRIG DGND Input
Output
PFI6/WaveformTriggeras an input, this is one of the
PFIs.
Asan output, this is the WFTRIG (AO Start Trigger) signal.
Intimed analog output sequences, a low-to-high transition
indicatesthe initiation of the waveform generation.
PFI7/STARTSCAN DGND Input
Output
PFI7/Startof Scanas an input, this is one of the PFIs.
Asan output, this is the STARTSCAN (AI Scan Start)
signal.This pin pulses once at the start of each analog input
scanin the interval scan. A low-to-high transition indicates
thestart of the scan.
PFI8/GPCTR0_SOURCE DGND Input
Output
PFI8/Counter0 Sourceas an input, this is one of the
PFIs.
Asan output, this is the GPCTR0_SOURCE signal.
Thissignal reflects the actual source connected to the
general-purposecount er 0.
PFI9/GPCTR0_GATE DGND Input
Output
PFI9/Counter0 Gateas an input, this is one of the PFIs.
Asan output, this is the GPCTR0_GATE signal. This signal
reflectsthe actual gate signal connected to the
general-purposecount er 0.
GPCTR0_OUT DGND Output Counter0 Outputthis output is from the general-purpose
counter0 output.
FREQ_OUT DGND Output FrequencyOutputthis output is from the frequency
generatoroutput.
*Indicatesthat the signal is active low
