Hi Dennis,

First you need to use the niUSRP property node to make the USRP routing the 
signal at the at Trig In/Out port as Input. If you have that, you will receive 
your trigger as a Trig In. Assuming you are using the Reference FPGA as a basis 
for your design drop a FGPA I/O node on your diagram an select “Board Interface 
-> Trig In” as it’s source. The Boolean wire represents the state of your Trig 
In port and you can use it to drive the e.g. the external trigger inputs of the 
sync Vis for the RX and or TX chain (depending on the intended use case).

Hello Lars,

thank you for your reply. I have seen the mentioned topic in the USRP X410 User 
Manual, which roughly outlines how you can replace the wiring in the timed loop 
where the Trig Out Routing VI is located.

I was rather interested in how I can use TRIG IN to interfere in the Tx/Rx Loop 
to control when I receive and when I stop receiving with the trigger.

Best regards

Betreff: RE: USRP X410 TRIG LabView

Dennis,

According to the documentation 
https://www.ni.com/docs/de-DE/bundle/usrp-x410/page/signal-routing.html you 
should use niUSRP property node on the host and wire an input to it. In the 
reference FPGA you have to modify the TRIG OUT VI on the top right.  The 
default wiring ist PPS -> Trig OUT and you have to change that to match your 
design. You have to remove the existing wiring as you want to use trigger as 
output.

Regards

Lars

Subject: [EXTERNAL] [USRP-users] USRP X410 TRIG LabView



Hello everyone,

I would like to use the TRIG IN functionality of the X410 to start the 
receiving of data on a trigger.

How do I implement this/modify the Reference FPGA image to achieve this? I 
would love to get some guidance regarding this issue.

Thank you in advance!

Best regards
Dennis Jurk
