DAQCard-500 Register-Level Programmer Manual
This manual is available from National Instruments by request. If you are using NI-DAQ,
LabVIEW, or LabWindows/CVI, you should not need the register-level programmer manual.
Using NI-DAQ, LabVIEW, or LabWindows/CVI is as easy and as flexible as using the low-level
programming described in the register-level programmer manual. Refer to Software
Programming Choices in Chapter 1, Introduction, of this manual to learn more about your
programming options.
