Each channel of the NI USB-9421 has a terminal or pin, DI, to which you can connect voltage or current signals. The NI USB-9421 also has a common terminal or pin, COM, that is internally connected to the isolated reference of the module. Each digital input channel on the NI USB-9421 has an LED that indicates the state of that channel. Refer to Table 3 for the terminal assignments of the NI USB-9421 with screw terminal. Refer to Figure 7 for the pin assignments of the NI USB-9421 with D-SUB
