National Instruments Documentation
The
671X User Manual
is one piece of the documentation set for your 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:
•
Getting Started with SCXI—If you are using SCXI, this is the first
manual you should read. It gives an overview of the SCXI system and
contains the most commonly needed information for the modules,
chassis, and software.
•
Your SCXI hardware user manuals—If you are using SCXI, read these
manuals next for detailed information about signal connections and
module configuration. They also explain in greater detail how the
module works and contain application hints.
•
Your DAQ hardware documentation—This documentation has
detailed information about the DAQ hardware that plugs into or is
connected to your computer. Use this documentation for hardware
installation and configuration instructions, specification information
about your DAQ hardware, and application hints.
•
Software documentation—You may have both application software
and NI-DAQ software documentation. National Instruments
application software includes ComponentWorks, LabVIEW,
LabWindows/CVI, and VirtualBench. 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.
