PCI-2500 Series
The PCI-2500 Series includes the PCI-2511, PCI-2513, PCI-2515, and PCI -2517 boards.
Analog input
Analog input functions and methods supported
UL: cbAIn(), cbAInScan(), cbFileAInScan(), cbAPretrig()*, cbATrig(),
cbALoadQueue()
UL for .NET: AIn(), AInScan(), FileAInScan(), APretrig()*, ATrig(), ALoadQueue()
* Pretrigger capability is implemented in software. PretrigCount must be less
than the TotalCount and cannot exceed 100000 samples. TotalCount must be
greater than the PretrigCount. If a trigger occurs while the number of collected
samples is less than the PretrigCount, that trigger will be ignored. Requires a call
to cbSetTrigger (SetTrigger) for the analog trigger type.
Analog input argument values
Options BACKGROUND, CONTINUOUS, EXTCLOCK, CONVERTDATA, DMAIO, BLOCKIO, EXTTRIGGER
With EXTTRIGGER mode, the first channel in the scan is the analog trigger channel.

Analog output (PCI-2517 and PCI-2515 only)
Analog output functions and methods supported
UL: cbAOut(), cbAOutScan()
UL for .NET: AOut(), AOutScan()
Analog output argument values
Options BACKGROUND, CONTINUOUS, EXTCLOCK, SIMULTANEOUS, NONSTREAMEDIO,
ADCCLOCKTRIG, ADCCLOCK
NONSTREAMEDIO can only be used with the number of samples set equal to the size
of the FIFO or less. The FIFO holds 524288 samples.
