DAQmxConnectTerms
int32 DAQmxConnectTerms (const char sourceTerminal[], const char destinationTerminal[], int32 signalModifiers);
Purpose
Creates a route between a source and destination terminal. 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. DAQmxConnectTerms does not modify a task. When DAQmxConnectTerms runs, the route is immediately reserved and committed to hardware. This type of routing is called immediate routing.
