1 Specify TTL0 when the NI PXI-4060 is installed in the right-most slot of a combination chassis to generate MC on Local Bus Right Trigger Line 0 of the SCXI internal trigger lines.
2 Lines TTL0, TTL1, and TTL2 refer to the device interconnect on the NI PCI-4070.
3 Refer to the chassis section for more information regarding limitations of using this feature.
