Some NI chassis, such as the PXIe-1095, have the capability to route triggers from one bus to others within the same chassis using the Trigger Routing tab in MAX.
Note Selecting any non-disabled routing automatically reserves the line in all trigger buses being routed to. If you are using NI-DAQmx, it will reserve and route trigger lines for you, so you won’t have to route trigger lines manually.

Complete the following steps to configure trigger routings in MAX.

  1. In the Configuration tree, select the chassis in which you want to route trigger lines.
  2. In the right-hand pane, select the Trigger Routing tab near the bottom.
  3. For each trigger line, select Away from Bus 1, Away from Bus 2, or Away from Bus 3 to route triggers on that line in the described direction, or select Dynamic for the default behavior with no manual routing.
  4. Click the Save button.
