How To Use Start Trigger Function With NI-SCOPE

How to use the Start trigger function with NI-SCOPE just like in DAQmx? I tried to use niScope Configure Trigger (poly) VI but it did not work as I expected.

I want to do a continuous measurement with a NI-SCOPE card that is started by a start trigger. How do I implement this?

You are not able to specify a Start Trigger directly with the NI-SCOPE API. If you want to do so, you'll need to use NI-SCOPE property node instead of API. The image below show the property node that allows you to specify the start trigger source.

LabVIEW provides some NI-SCOPE examples, which you can use for quick development. Below is a modified version of the example niSxope EX Fetch Forever.vi. It uses an external signal on VAL_PFI_1 as a start trigger.

 
Note: This image is a LabVIEW snippet, which includes LabVIEW code that you can reuse in your project. To use a snippet, right-click the image, save it to your computer, and drag the file onto your LabVIEW diagram.
