Yes you can trigger both at the same time. You didn't specify which ADE you are using so for LabVIEW use the niRFSA Configure Trigger.vi. This is a polymorphic vi so choose the Digital Edge Ref trigger instance and select the appropriate trigger source (PFI0 would probably be good) then connect both PFI0 connectors to your trigger mechanism. You could equally use one of the PXI trigger lines if you have some other PXI hardware from which you get your trigger. If you are using CVI then use the niRFSA_ConfigureDigitalEdgeStartTrigger ( ) function, the parameters are defined in the help file.
You can still use the CVI function it is really a C function call but with CVI you have the extra ease of use of the front panel programming method. But you can still use the same functions in any C environment.
I don't have a hardware trigger mechanism but want to trigger both 5661s by software simutaneously. Can I send a trigger to the PFI or PXI trigger line by software, e.g. CVI?
