Set the W3 jumper to TRIG/CLK PORT A(B), shown 
in Figure C-5b, to select the CLK10 source as the 
TRIG/CLK PORT A(B) on the VXI-8360T front panel. When 
selecting the trigger card as the CLK10 input source be sure 
to set jumper W7 to set the direction of CLK10 through the 
TRIG/CLK PORT A(B).

W4—CLK10 Source Select
In Slot 0 operation the CLK10 Source Select jumper allows you to select 
the source for the VXIbus CLK10 that is routed to the backplane.
The default setting, Internal Oscillator, shown in Figure C-6a, uses the 
internal 10MHz ±100 ppm oscillator as the VXIbus CLK10 source. 
Set the W4 jumper to External Source, shown in Figure C-6b, to use the 
front panel SMB or the TRIG/CLK PORT A(B) as the CLK10 source. 
Jumper W3 External CLK10 Source Select is used in conjunction with W4 
when W4 is set to select an external oscillator as the VXIbus CLK10 
source.
