Figure 2-2 shows DIO<0..3> configured for digital input and DIO<4..7>
configured for digital output. Digital input applications include receiving
TTL, LVTTL, CMOS, or LVCMOS signals and sensing external device
states, such as the state of the switch shown in Figure 2-2. Digital output
applications include sending TTL or LVCMOS signals and driving external
devices, such as the LED shown in Figure 2-2.

The NI 781xR SH68-C68-S shielded cable contains 34 twisted pairs of
conductors. To maximize the digital I/O available on the NI 781xR, some
of the DIO lines are twisted with power or ground, and some DIO lines are
twisted with other DIO lines. To obtain maximum signal integrity, place
edge-sensitive or high-frequency digital signals on the DIO lines that are
paired with power or ground. Because the DIO lines that are twisted with
other DIO lines can couple noise onto each other, use these lines for static
signals or for non-edge-sensitive, low-frequency digital signals. Examples
of high-frequency or edge-sensitive signals include clock, trigger,
pulse-width modulation (PWM), encoder, and counter signals. Examples of
static signals or non-edge-sensitive, low-frequency signals include LEDs,
switches, and relays. Table 2-1 summarizes these guidelines.

RTSI Trigger Bus
The NI 781xR can send and receive triggers through the RTSI trigger bus.
The RTSI bus provides eight shared trigger lines that connect to all the
devices on the bus. In PXI, the trigger lines are shared between all the PXI
slots in a bus segment. In PCI, the RTSI bus is implemented through a
ribbon cable connected to the RTSI connector on each device that needs to
access the RTSI bus.

You can use the RTSI trigger lines to synchronize the NI 781xR to any other
device that supports RTSI triggers. On the NI PCI-781xR, the RTSI trigger
device that supports RTSI triggers. On the NI PCI-781xR, the RTSI trigger
