DAQCard-1200 User Manual
PC refers to all PC AT series computers with PCI or PXI bus unless
otherwise noted.
PCMCIA is an international standards body and trade association that
promotes the interoperability of PC cards.
Text in this font denotes a specific platform and indicates that the text
following it applies only to that platform.
The DAQCard-1200 User Manual is one piece of the documentation set for
the data acquisition (DAQ) system. You could have any of several types of
documentation depending on the hardware and software in your system.
Use the documentation you have as follows:
•
Hardware documentation—This documentation has detailed
information about the DAQ hardware that plugs into or is connected to
the computer. Use this documentation for hardware installation and
configuration instructions, specification information about DAQ
hardware, and application hints.
•
Software documentation—You may have both application software
and NI-DAQ software documentation. NI application software
includes LabVIEW and Measurement Studio. After you set up your
hardware system, use either your application software documentation
or the NI-DAQ documentation to help you write your application. If
you have a large, complicated system, it is worthwhile to look through
the software documentation before you configure your hardware.
•
Accessory installation guides or manuals—If you are using accessory
products, read the cable assembly installation guide. It explains how to
physically connect the relevant pieces of the system. Consult this guide
when you make the connections.
