NI 5922 Trigger Types

The NI 5922 supports the following trigger types: edge, hysteresis, immediate, digital, software, and window triggers.

The NI 5922 uses the digitized data from the input channel ADC when performing an analog trigger on CH 0 or CH 1. This behavior ensures a level and time trigger accuracy of ±1 sample. Because of the internal digital filters, there is a 24- to 30-sample delay when you export an analog trigger to another device. The external trigger channel uses analog circuitry to detect trigger events. Therefore, the accuracy is not dependent on the sample rate and the NI 5922 does not have the sample delay when it exports triggers that are received on the external trigger channel.
