Description
The PXI Multifunction DAQ, known by its model name PXI-6229, is a versatile data acquisition device designed for high-precision measurements and automation systems. Manufactured by National Instruments, this device is identified by part numbers 779630-01 and 779115-01. The PXI-6229 operates on a Local Bus system, ensuring efficient data handling and processing.
It boasts an impressive capability to handle 16 differential or 32 single-ended analog input channels, providing flexibility in connecting various sensors and signals. Additionally, the device offers 4 analog output channels for generating precise voltage or current signals. With 48 total digital I/O/PFI channels, it allows for extensive interfacing with external devices, making it suitable for a wide range of applications. Furthermore, the PXI-6229 is equipped with 2 counters/timers, enhancing its functionality in timing and counting tasks.
The device features a 16-bit resolution for accurate data representation and can achieve a maximum sample rate of 250 kS/s, ensuring the capture of fast transient signals. It requires annual calibration to maintain its accuracy and performance over time. For connectivity, it comes with two 68-pin connectors, facilitating easy and secure connections to other devices and systems.
Compatible with SCC modules, the PXI-6229 allows for expanded functionality and customization according to specific application needs. Although it has reached its mature status, announced by National Instruments, it remains available for purchase and repairs through Apex Waves. Moreover, it supports NIST accredited calibrations through a 3rd party and basic in-house calibration, ensuring reliable and precise measurements.
