What option do I have for programming analog triggering in a 6035e daq?

[sandra011172]

I am using a 6035e board but it doesn't support analog triggering option. I read the manual and it said that the PFI input is use for triggering, how does it work? I want to acquire some data before and after a voltage condition (this condition must be done with analog triggering ?)how can we do that using a 6035 board?
Best Regards,

Sandra,

You are correct, the NI 6035E does not support hardware analog triggering. The PFI lines can be used for digital triggering (TTL logic). A digital stop (reference) trigger does support both pre-trigger scans and post-trigger scans. The example Acquire N Scans Digital Trig.vi demonstrates this programming procedure in LabVIEW. If you do need to perform analog triggering, you should use an analog software trigger. The example Acquire N Scans Analog Software Trig.vi demonstrates this programming procedure.

Good luck with your application.
