National Instruments Documentation
The AMUX-64T User Manual is one piece of the documentation set for
your system. You could have any of several types of documentation,
depending on the hardware and software in your system. Use the different
types of documentation you have as follows:
•
Your DAQ hardware user manuals—These manuals have detailed
information about the DAQ hardware that plugs into or is connected to
your computer. Use these manuals for hardware installation and
configuration instructions, specification information about your DAQ
hardware, and application hints.
•
Software documentation—Examples of software manuals you may
have are the LabVIEW and LabWindows/CVI, Virtual Bench,
Component Works, Measure, and NI-DAQ documentation. 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 and complicated system, it is
worthwhile to look through the software documentation before you
configure your hardware.
•
Accessory installation guides or manuals—If you are using accessory
products, read the terminal block and cable assembly installation
guides or accessory board user manuals. They explain how to
physically connect the relevant pieces of the system. Consult these
guides when you are making your connections.
