Software

NI-DAQmx 9.8 added support for the NI PXIe-4610. Ensure the version of NI-DAQmx on the 
calibration system supports the NI PXIe-4610. You can download NI-DAQmx from 

ni.com/downloads

. NI-DAQmx supports LabVIEW, LabWindows

/CVI

, C/C++, C#, 

and Visual Basic .NET. When you install NI-DAQmx, you only need to install support for the 
application software that you intend to use.
