Counter Signal Routing
The NI-9361 has flexible signal routing features. The input signals to the counters
can be routed from any of the eight digital input terminals. You can change the
signal routing by configuring the counter properties.
The soware routes certain digital input signals to each of the counters by default.
The following table shows the default routing for counter signals.
