DAQmx Equivalent of AI Clock Config.vi and Signal Routing.vi

I'm converting some VIs from Traditional to DAQmx for a hardware upgrade from an E-series card to an M-series card.  I have a question on terminology and input changes in AI Clock Config.vi

In the VI I'm working on, the AI Clock Config.vi takes a "1" into it's "Which Clock" input, and "PFI pin, low to high" and '5' into the "Clock Source" cluster input.  Would the DAQmx implementation of this be along the lines of the DAQmx Timing (Sample Clock).vi, with constant "/DevX/PFI5" wired to source, and "rising" wired to active edge?

I just noticed that I neglected ask the signal routing question mentioned the subject line.  It was just going to be asking for corresponding terminology between 'signal source' and 'signal entries' for Route Signal.vi and DAQmx Export Signal (most signals).vi, particularly for signal source entries 4, 7, and 9.

Hi,

The DAQmx Timing VI will be the equivalent to the AI Clock Config.VI and your first post has the correct equivalent configurations.

The "signal source" input of the Route Signals VI and the "signal" input of the DAQmx Export signal VI are equivalent. Also, the "signal name" for the Route Signals VI and the "Output Terminal" for the DAQmx Export Signals VI are equivalent. More information about these functions can be found in the LabVIEW Help. Also, please see the resources in my previous post for more information about transitioning from Traditional NI-DAQ (Legacy) to DAQmx:
