Using the NI WLS/ENET-9000 Series Device  
C Series I/0 Modules  
National Instruments C Series I/O modules provide built-in signal  
conditioning and screw terminal, spring terminal, BNC, D-SUB, or  
RJ-50 connectors. A wide variety of I/O types are available, allowing  
you to customize the your system to meet your application needs.  
You can swap C Series modules when the NI WLS/ENET-9163 carrier is  
plugged in. After swapping modules, even if it is the same module type, you  
must discover the device through MAX again.  
Because the modules contain built-in signal conditioning for extended  
voltage ranges or industrial signal types, you can make your  
wiring connections directly from the C Series I/O modules to your  
sensors/actuators. In most cases, the C Series I/O modules provide isolation  
from channel-to-earth ground.  
AI Sample Timing  
The NI WLS/ENET-9000 Series device contains an advanced analog input  
timing engine. Timing and synchronization signals are available through  
the PFI lines. Refer to the Analog Input Timing Signal section for more  
information about the configuration of these signals.  
© National Instruments Corporation  
17  
NI WLS/ENET-9163 Carrier User Guide and Specifications  
 
Analog Input  
To perform analog input measurements, insert a supported analog input  
C Series I/O module into the NI WLS/ENET-9163 carrier. The  
measurement specifications, such as number of channels, channel  
configuration, sample rate, and gain, are determined by the type of C Series  
I/O module used. For more information and wiring diagrams, refer to the  
documentation included with your C Series I/O modules.  
Analog Input Triggering  
A trigger is a signal that causes an action, such as starting or stopping the  
you want to produce the trigger and the action you want the trigger to cause.  
The NI WLS/ENET-9000 Series device supports internal software  
triggering and external digital triggering.  
Three triggers are available: AI Start Trigger Signal, AI Reference Trigger  
Signal, and AI Pause Trigger Signal.  
AI Start Trigger Signal  
Use the AI Start Trigger (ai/StartTrigger) signal to begin a measurement  
acquisition. A measurement acquisition consists of one or more samples. If  
you do not use triggers, begin a measurement with a software command.  
Once the acquisition begins, configure the acquisition to stop in one of the  
following ways:  
When a certain number of points is sampled (in finite mode)  
With a software command (in continuous mode)  
An acquisition that uses a start trigger is sometimes referred to as a  
posttriggered acquisition. That is, samples are measured only after the  
trigger.  
Using a Digital Source  
To use ai/StartTrigger with a digital source, specify a source and an edge.  
NI-DAQmx can provide an internal start trigger or PFI 0 may be used.  
Refer to the Device Routing in MAX topic in the NI-DAQmx Help or the  
LabVIEW Help in version 8.0 or later for more information.

You also can specify whether the measurement acquisition begins on the  
rising edge or falling edge of ai/StartTrigger.  
Routing AI Start Trigger to an Output Terminal  
You can route ai/StartTrigger to the PFI 0 terminal. The output polarity is  
selectable.  
AI Reference Trigger Signal  
Use a reference trigger (ai/ReferenceTrigger) signal to stop a measurement  
acquisition. To use a reference trigger, specify a buffer of finite size and  
a number of pretrigger samples (samples that occur before the reference  
trigger). The number of posttrigger samples (samples that occur after the  
reference trigger) desired is the buffer size minus the number of pretrigger  
samples.  
When the acquisition begins, the NI WLS/ENET-9000 Series device begins  
to fill the buffer. After the specified number of pretrigger samples are  
captured, the NI WLS/ENET-9000 Series device begins to look for the  
reference trigger condition. If the reference trigger condition occurs before  
the NI WLS/ENET-9000 Series device captures the specified number of  
pretrigger samples, the NI WLS/ENET-9000 Series device ignores the  
condition.  
If the buffer becomes full, the NI WLS/ENET-9000 Series device  
continuously discards the oldest samples in the buffer to make space for  
the next sample. This data can be accessed with some limitations before  
the NI WLS/ENET-9000 Series device discards it. Refer to the  
KnowledgeBase document, Can a Pretriggered Acquisition be  
Continuous?, for more information. To access this KnowledgeBase, go to  
ni.com/info and enter the info code rdcanq.

When the reference trigger occurs, the NI WLS/NET-9163 Series device  
continues to write samples to the buffer until the buffer contains the number  
of posttrigger samples desired. Figure 10 shows the final buffer.

Using a Digital Source  
To use ai/ReferenceTrigger with a digital source, specify a source and an  
edge. PFI 0 can provide the source. Refer to the Device Routing in MAX  
topic in the NI-DAQmx Help or the LabVIEW Help in version 8.0 or later  
for more information.

Help in LabVIEW. Alternately, to download the LabVIEW Help, go to  
ni.com/manuals.  
You also can specify whether the measurement acquisition stops on the  
rising edge or falling edge of ai/ReferenceTrigger.  
AI Pause Trigger Signal  
The Pause Trigger signal can be generated from external sources. Any time  
the signal deasserts, you can use the Pause Trigger signal to pause the  
acquisition.  
You can use the AI Pause Trigger (ai/PauseTrigger) signal to pause and  
resume a measurement acquisition. The internal sample clock pauses while  
the external trigger signal is active and resumes when the signal is inactive.  
You can program the active level of the pause trigger to be high or low.  
Using a Digital Source  
To use ai/PauseTrigger, specify a source and a polarity on PFI 0.

Note Pause triggers are only sensitive to the level of the source, not the edge.  
Analog Input Timing Signal  
AI Sample Clock  
A sample consists of one reading from each channel in the AI task.  
ai/SampleClock signals the start of a sample of all analog input channels  
in the task. ai/SampleClock can be generated from external or internal  
sources.  
Using A Digital Source  
To use ai/SampleClock, specify a source and an edge on PFI 1. For more  
information, refer to the Device Routing in MAX topic in the NI-DAQmx  
Help.

Convert Behavior For Analog Input Modules  
Scanned  
Scanned C Series analog input modules contain a single A/D converter and  
a multiplexer to select between multiple input channels. When the C Series  
Module Interface receives a Sample Clock pulse, it begins generating a  
Convert Clock for each scanned module in the current task. Each Convert  
Clock signals the acquisition of a single channel from that module. The  
Convert Clock rate depends on the module being used, the number of  
channels, and the Sample Clock rate.

NI WLS/ENET-9163 Carrier User Guide and Specifications  
 
 
Simultaneous Sample-and-Hold  
Simultaneous sample-and-hold (SSH) C Series analog input modules  
contain multiple A/D converters or circuitry that allows all the input  
channels to be sampled at the same time. These modules sample their  
inputs on every AI Sample Clock pulse.  
Sigma-Delta  
Sigma-Delta C Series analog input modules function much like SSH  
modules, but use A/D converters that require a high-frequency oversample  
clock to produce accurate, synchronized data.  
This clock is used as the AI Sample Clock Timebase. While most modules  
supply a common oversample clock frequency (12.8 MHz), some modules,  
such as the NI 9234, supply a different frequency. The sampling  
is an integer divisor of the frequency of the AI Sample Clock Timebase.  
Getting Started with AI Applications in Software

input applications:  
Single-Point
