NI-DAQ Driver Software
The NI-DAQ driver software is included at no charge with all National
Instruments DAQ hardware. NI-DAQ has an extensive library of functions
that you can call from your application programming environment. These
functions include routines for analog input (A/D conversion), buffered data
acquisition (high-speed A/D conversion), analog output (D/A conversion),
waveform generation, digital I/O, counter/timer operations, SCXI, PXI
Trigger Bus (RTSI), self-calibration, messaging, and acquiring data to
extended memory.
NI-DAQ also internally addresses many of the complex issues between the
computer and the plug-in board, such as programming interrupts and DMA
controllers. NI-DAQ maintains a consistent software interface among its
different versions so that you can change platforms with minimal
modifications to your code. Whether you are using conventional
programming languages or National Instruments application software, your
application uses the NI-DAQ driver software, as illustrated in Figure 1-1.
