#                    CONFIGURATION FILE FOR ADSEND
#                    -----------------------------
#
#  If there are no mux boards in the system, OnboardChans (16) channels are
#  digitized.  If there are mux boards in the system,
#  (4 * OnboardChans * NumMuxBoards) channels are digitized.
#  The station file must contain an entry for each channel digitized.

#                         EXTERNAL TRIGGERING
# This program uses "High-Hysteresis Analog Triggering Mode".
# Triggering occurs when the trigger voltage becomes greater than HighValue.
# Detriggering occurs when the trigger voltage becomes less than LowValue.
# HighValue minus LowValue must be >= 0.1 volt.
# For more information on triggering, see the National Instruments "PCI-MIO
# E Series User Manual", Jan 1997 edition, chapter 3.

HighValue        3.25           # In volts (-10V to 10V) (must be > LowValue)
TimeoutNoTrig    5              # If no tracebuf messages are obtained for
                                # TimeoutNoTrigger seconds, the program will
                                # assume the external trigger is disconnected.
                                # The program will switch to internal triggering.

#               "SCNL" AND PIN VALUES FOR EACH DAQ CHANNEL
# Chan lines must follow the Channel Configuration lines in this file.
# Unused channels may be omitted from the list.  Pin numbers are optional.
# If a pin number is not specified for a channel, the pin number is set to
# the DAQ channel number.
