    Chapter 1 Introduction The National Instruments SB Series DAQ boards are packaged with NI-DAQ software for Sun, which comes with a language interface for ANSI C. Register-Level Programming The final option for programming any National Instruments DAQ hardware is to write register-level software. Writing register-level programming software can be very time-consuming and inefficient, and is not recommended for most users.
