Working Principle The host controls ADC sampling analog voltages over the PCI bus; DMA transfers data to PC memory. AO outputs analog voltages. DIO reads/writes TTL levels. Counters measure frequency and pulse width. NI-DAQmx API provides programming interface.

Installation Requirements

  • With PC power off, insert into PCI slot
  • Connect DB68 shielded cable to terminal block
  • Wire signals per pinout
  • Grounding
  • Temperature 0 °C to +55 °C
  • Install NI-DAQmx driver
  • Test channels in MAX software

Precautions

  • Power off before insertion
  • Input voltage must not exceed ±10 V
  • Wear ESD wrist strap
  • Store spares in anti-static packaging
  • Cable shield grounded
  • Driver version matches OS
