Chapter 1 Introduction Easily synchronizing several functions to a common trigger or timing event is a common challenge with image acquisition devices. The PCI-1428 uses the Real-Time System Integration (RTSI) bus to solve this problem. The RTSI bus uses National Instruments RTSI bus interface and ribbon cable to route additional timing and trigger signals between the PCI-1428 and up to four National Instruments DAQ, motion control, or IMAQ devices. The RTSI bus can even synchronize multip
