Note
Selecting any non-disabled routing automatically reserves the line in all trigger 
buses being routed to. If you are using NI-DAQmx, it will reserve and route trigger lines 
for you, so you won’t have to route trigger lines manually.
Complete the following steps to configure trigger routings in MAX.
1.
In the Configuration tree, select the chassis in which you want to route 
trigger lines.
2.
In the right-hand pane, select the Trigger Routing tab near the bottom.
3.
For each trigger line, select Route RightRoute Outward From 
Middle
, or Route Left to route triggers on that line in the described 
direction, or select Disabled for the default behavior with no manual 
routing.
4.
Click the Apply button.
Using System Configuration and Initialization Files
The PXI specification allows many combinations of PXI chassis and 
system modules. To assist system integrators, the manufacturers of PXI 
chassis and system modules must document the capabilities of their 
products. The minimum documentation requirements are contained 
in
.ini
 files, which consist of ASCII text. System integrators, 
configuration utilities, and device drivers can use these 
.ini
 files.
The capability documentation for the PXI-1056 chassis is contained in the 
chassis.ini
 file on the software media that comes with the chassis. The 
information in this file is combined with information about the system 
controller to create a single system initialization file called 
pxisys.ini
 
(PXI System Initialization). The system controller manufacturer either 
provides a 
pxisys.ini
 file for the particular chassis model that contains 
the system controller or provides a utility that can read an arbitrary 
chassis.ini
 file and generate the corresponding 
pxisys.ini
 file. 
System controllers from National Instruments use the Measurement & 
Automation Explorer (MAX) to generate the 
pxisys.ini
 file from the 
chassis.ini
 file.
Device drivers and other utility software read the 
pxisys.ini
 file to 
obtain system information. Device drivers should have no need to directly 
read the 
chassis.ini
 file. For detailed information regarding 
initialization files, refer to the PXI specification at
