digio.line[N].mode
This attribute sets the digital I/O line to be a digital line or trigger model line and sets the line as an input, output,
or open-drain. You can also use this attribute to configure synchronous triggering modes.

Details
Use this command to set the line as a digital line or as a trigger line, and configure it as an input, output, or open-
drain. A digital line allows direct control of the digital I/O lines; a trigger line controls the digital I/O lines through
trigger commands.
The following settings of lineState set the line for direct control as a digital line:
• digio.MODE_DIGITAL_IN
• digio.MODE_DIGITAL_OUT
• digio.MODE_DIGITAL_OPEN_DRAIN
The following settings of lineState set the line as a trigger line:
• digio.MODE_TRIGGER_IN
This line state uses the edge setting specified by trigger.digin[N].edge attribute.
• digio.MODE_TRIGGER_OUT
• digio.MODE_TRIGGER_OPEN_DRAIN
When configured as an open-drain, the line becomes an open-drain signal with a 100 kΩ pull-up resistor. This is
true when the line is configured for direct-control or for use as a trigger line. When used as a trigger line, the line
uses the edge setting like digio.MODE_TRIGGER_IN.
When the line is set as a synchronous acceptor, the line detects the falling-edge input triggers and automatically
latches and drives the trigger line low; asserting an output trigger releases the latched line. When set as a
synchronous master, the line detects rising-edge triggers as input; for output, the line asserts a TTL-low pulse.
Example
digio.line[1].mode = digio.MODE_TRIGGER_OUT
Set digital I/O line 1 to be an output trigger
line.
