question about DAQmx Trigger.vi and trigger property node, when using them to program the PXI4472 card and PXI 6602 card.

I used DAQmx VI to program the pxi 4472 and pxi 6602 card so that one does the data acquisition the other generate the pulses. I hope these two card can work at the same time, so I specify in the trigger property node that both of the two card will use the star_stigger riging edge as the digital start trigger source and edge, and it can work. But if I changed the trigger property node into start trigger instance of the DAQmx trigger.vi , and specity the digital source and digital source edge, it doesn't work. In theory, I think both of the two methods can work, why in practice it doesn't??

Hi,

They both work. One of the properties off the trigger property node is Start.TrigType. You need to make sure that you sepecify a value for that property to get the trigger to work just by calling the property node.
See attached picture for more information.
