NI PGIA – Measurement and instrument class amplifier that

guarantees settling times at all gains. Typical commercial off-the-

shelf amplifier components do not meet the settling time

requirements for high-gain measurement applications.

PFI Lines – Eight programmable function input (PFI) lines that can

be used for software-controlled routing of intraboard digital and

timing signals.

RSE Mode – In addition to differential and nonreferenced single-

ended modes, NI portable E Series devices offer referenced

single-ended (RSE) mode for use with floating signal sources in

applications with channel counts higher than eight.

Onboard Temperature Sensor – Included for monitoring the

operating temperature of the device to ensure that it is operating

within the specified range.

Analog and Digital Triggering – Some portable E Series devices

provide the ability to set a trigger based on the level of an analog signal,

in addition to the ability to trigger off an edge of a digital signal.

High-Performance, Easy-to-Use Driver Software

Measurement Services Software includes NI-DAQ, the robust driver

software that makes it easy to access the functionality of your data

acquisition hardware, whether you are a beginning or advanced user.

Helpful features include:

Automatic Code Generation – The DAQ Assistant is an interactive

guide that steps you through configuring, testing, and programming

measurement tasks and generates the necessary code automatically

for LabVIEW, LabWindows/CVI, or Measurement Studio.

Cleaner Code Development – Basic and advanced software functions

have been combined into one easy-to-use yet powerful set to help

you build cleaner code and move from basic to advanced

applications without replacing functions.

High-Performance Driver Engine – Software-timed single point

input (typically used in control loops) with NI-DAQ achieves rates of

up to 50 kHz. NI-DAQ also delivers maximum system throughput

I/O with a multithreaded driver.

Test Panels – With NI-DAQ, you can test all of your device

functionality before you begin development.

Scaled Channels – Easily scale your voltage data into the proper

engineering units using the NI-DAQ measurement-ready virtual

channels by choosing from a list of common sensors and signals or

creating your own custom scale.

LabVIEW Integration – All NI-DAQ functions use the waveform data

type, which carries acquired data and timing information directly

into more than 400 LabVIEW built-in analysis routines for display of

results in engineering units on a graph.

Note: Accuracies are valid for measurements following an internal Calibration. Measurement accuracies are listed for operational temperatures within ±1 °C of internal calibration temperature and ±10 °C of external or

factory-calibration temperature. One-year calibration interval recommended. The Absolute Accuracy at Full Scale calculations were performed for a maximum range input voltage (for example, 10 V for the ±10 V range) after one

year, assuming 100 pt averaging of data.*Smallest detectable voltage change in the input signal at the smallest input range.
