Chapter 2 DAQ System Overview
You can use one BNC accessory on connector 0 of any X Series device. An additional BNC
accessory may be used on connector 1 of any X series device except the NI 6345/6349/6355/
6365/6375 devices. The BNC-2115 can only be used on connectors 1, 2, or 3 of the NI 6345/

Screw Terminal Accessories

National Instruments offers several styles of screw terminal connector blocks. All terminal
connector blocks require a cable except the TB-2706 to connect an X Series device to a
connector block, as listed in Table 2-2.

TB-2706
*
TB-2706 (not for use with NI 6345/6346/6349/6355/6365/6375 devices) uses Connector 0 of your
PXI Express device. After a TB-2706 is installed, Connector 1 cannot be used.

RTSI Cables

Use RTSI bus cables to connect timing and synchronization signals among PCI/PCI Express
devices, such as X Series, M Series, CAN, and other measurement, vision, and motion devices.
Since PXI devices use PXI backplane signals for timing and synchronization, no cables are
required.
