Software Programming Choices
When programming your National Instruments DAQ hardware, you can
use NI application development environment (ADE) software or other
ADEs. In either case, you use NI-DAQ.
NI-DAQ
NI-DAQ, which shipped with the NI 6052E, has an extensive library of
functions that you can call from the ADE. These functions allow you to use
all the features of the NI 6052E.
NI-DAQ carries out many of the complex interactions, such as
programming interrupts, between the computer and the DAQ hardware.
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 use LabVIEW, Measurement Studio, VI Logger
or other ADEs, your application uses NI-DAQ, as illustrated in Figure 1-1.
