Operation Theory

The operation theories of the DAQ/PXI-2500 series are described
in this chapter.  The functions include A/D conversion, D/A conver-
sion, Digital I/O, and General Purpose Counter / Timer. This oper-
ation theory will help you understand how to configure and
program the DAQ/PXI-2500 series.
