The M Series User Manual provides device-specific pin assignments and cabling guidance. Use the PCI/PXI-6254 section rather than the pinout for another M Series model.

  • Individually programmable digital input/output direction.
  • 32-bit Port 0 supports digital waveform acquisition and generation.
  • Analog edge, hysteresis and window triggering.
