	string destinationTerminal
)
Public Sub ConnectTerminals ( 
	sourceTerminal As String,
	destinationTerminal As String
)

Remarks

The route can carry a variety of digital signals such as triggers, clocks, and hardware events. These source and destination terminals can be on different devices, as long as a connecting public bus, such as RTSI or the PXI backplane, is available. This method does not modify a task. When the method is called, the route is immediately reserved and committed to hardware. This type of routing is called immediate routing.
