niSwitch Route Trigger Input VI
- Updated2025-10-06
- 3 minute(s) read
Routes the input trigger from the front or rear connector to a trigger bus line (TTLx). To disconnect the route, call this VI again and select None for the trigger input bus line parameter.
This VI should be used when scanning a module in a different NI-SWITCH session that is not directly cabled to the trigger source ( multimodule scanning operations).
If this VI is used to route a trigger to a TTL line, specify the TTL line as the trigger input in the niSwitch Configure Scan Trigger VI.

invert (False)
—
invert inverts the input trigger signal from rising to falling and falling to rising. The default value is FALSE (0).
instrument handle
—
instrument handle identifies a particular NI-SWITCH session established with the niSwitch Initialize With Topology VI, the niSwitch Initialize With Options VI, or the niSwitch Initialize VI.
trigger input connector
—
trigger input connector specifies the location of the input trigger source on the switch module. Valid locations are the front and rear connectors. The default Value is Front Connector.
trigger input bus line
—
trigger input bus line specifies the trigger line to route the input trigger. Select None to break an existing route.
error in (no error)
—
error in describes error conditions that occur before this node runs. This input provides standard error in functionality.
instrument handle out
