How do I trigger a module from a compactRIO using a module from another compactRIO?

Basically I have two compactRIOs with different modules on it. The first cRIO has an NI-9401 (8-CH, 5 V/TTL Bidirectional C Series DIO Module) module and the second cRIO have one NI-9205 (32-CH, +/-10V, 16-Bit Analog Input Module), one NI-9239 (4-CH, 24-Bit Analog Input Module), and one NI-9236 (8-CH, Quarter Bridge Stain Gauge Module) module. I will use the NI-9401 from the first cRIO to trigger the NI-9205, NI-9239, and NI-9236 modules on the second cRIO to start acquiring data. The first cRIO is the controller and the second cRIO is the embedded controller.

Hi Nealski,

 

This question was already addressed in this post and should help you be able to implement this.
