Can I do trigger routing using the chassis driver?

Starting with chassis driver version 1.7.82.1 and later, the Trigger Manager feature is added to manage trigger resources to prevent conflicts between applications. The AgM9018 IVI driver API has not changed; however, trigger routing done through the AgM9018 driver is now subject to PXI-9 Trigger Manager rules which can result in errors indicating a conflict between applications.

Use the IVI driver KtMTrig to set trigger routing directly to any PXIe chassis by just providing the backplane address("PXI0::1::BACKPLANE"). The example to look at is “C:\Program Files (x86)\IVI Foundation\IVI\Microsoft.NET\Framework32\v4.0.30319\Keysight.KtMTrig 1.7.82\Examples\CSharp\KtMTrig_CsRoutes”. The easiest way is to use the initialization of KtMTrig IVI driver (first few line in main function) in this example and then just use the API “SetTriggerPathBetweenSlots” (the example code also demonstrate this method) to do the routing. Refer to KtMTrig.SetTriggerPathBetweenSlots Method in the help file for more detail.
