interface and a ribbon cable to route timing and trigger signals between
several functions on as many as five DAQ devices in the PC.
The AT E Series devices can interface to an SCXI system so that you
can acquire over 3,000 analog signals from thermocouples, RTDs, strain
gauges, voltage sources, and current sources
.
You can also acquire or
generate digital signals for communication and control. SCXI is the
instrumentation front end for plug-in DAQ devices.
Detailed specifications of the AT E Series devices are in Appendix A,
