Considerations for Selecting Input Ranges
The range you select depends on the expected range of the incoming signal. 
A large input range can accommodate a large signal variation but reduces 
the voltage resolution. Choosing a smaller input range improves the voltage 
resolution but may result in the input signal going out of range. For best 
results, match the input range as closely as possible to the expected range 
of the input signal.
Input Coupling
You can configure the NI PCI-6110/6111 for either AC or DC input 
coupling on a per channel basis. Use AC coupling when the AC signal 
contains a large DC component. If you enable AC coupling, you remove 
the large DC offset for the input amplifier and amplify only the AC 
component. This configuration makes effective use of the ADC dynamic 
range.
Analog Output
The NI PCI-6110/6111 supplies two channels of AO voltage at the 
I/O connector. The range is fixed at bipolar ±10 V.
Analog Trigger
In addition to supporting internal software triggering and external digital 
triggering to initiate a DAQ sequence, these devices also support analog 
triggering. You can configure the analog trigger circuitry to accept either 
a direct analog input from the PFI0/TRIG1 pin on the I/O connector or a 
postgain signal from the output of the PGIA on any of the channels, as 
shown in Figures 3-3 and 3-4. The trigger-level range for the direct analog 
channel is ±10 V in 78 mV steps for the NI PCI-6110/6111. The range for 
the post-PGIA trigger selection is simply the full-scale range of the selected 
channel, and the resolution is that range divided by 256.
Note
PFI0/TRIG1 pin is an analog input when configured as an analog trigger. Therefore, 
it is susceptible to crosstalk from adjacent pins, which can result in false triggering when 
the pin is unconnected. To avoid false triggering, make sure this pin is connected to a 
low-impedance signal source (less than 1 k
Ω source impedance) if you plan to enable this 
input using software.
