National Instruments’ Modular Instruments use specialized drivers suited to each product’s
specialization. Express VIs provide customized, interactive programming of instruments in a
single interface and soft front panels provide an interface for testing the functionality of each
instrument with no programming required. NI Switches, DMMs, High-Speed DIO, High-Speed
Digitizers, and Sources each have customized drivers for high-end modular instrumentation
systems. RF applications leverage two drivers, NI-RFSG and NI-RFSA and Dynamic Signal
Acquisition is available through NI-DAQmx. For more information visit

You can expand the timing and triggering functionality of your PXI Express system with
PXI Express Timing and Synchronization products. These products provide precision clock
sources, custom routing of triggers for multi-chassis synchronization, clock sharing, and more
and are programmed with NI-Sync. For more information visit

NI-VISA is the National Instruments implementation of the VISA specification. VISA is a
uniform API for communicating and controlling USB, Serial, GPIB, PXI, PXI Express, VXI,
and various other types of instruments. This API aids in the creation of portable applications and
instrument drivers. For information on writing your own PXI Express instrument driver with
NI-VISA, refer to the
NI-VISA Getting Started Manual
and the
readme.txt
file in the
NI-VISA directory. For more information visit

With LabVIEW for Linux and support for over two hundred devices on Linux with the
NI-DAQmx driver, you can now create Virtual Instruments based on the Linux OS. Instrument
control in Linux has been improved by the NI-VISA driver for Linux and NI Modular
Instruments are partially supported. For more information visit

Cleaning
Use a dry, low-velocity stream of air to clean the NI PXIe-8880 controller. If needed, use a
soft-bristle brush for cleaning around components.
Make sure that the device is completely dry and free from contaminants before returning it to
service.
