Description
The PCI-6115 is a PC-based Multifunction DAQ with a variety of part numbers including 184529D-01, 778534-01, 778554-01, and 184529D-03. This device is designed to cater to a wide range of data acquisition and processing needs. It is equipped with a FIFO (First In, First Out) buffer size of 16 MS for part number 778534-01 and 32 MS for part number 778554-01, providing ample space for data buffering during high-speed data acquisition processes.
The PCI-6115 features 4 analog input channels that are pseudo differential with a 12-bit resolution, offering precise measurement capabilities. These channels can handle a maximum sampling rate of 10 MS/s per channel, with a minimum rate of 20 kS/s, allowing for both high-speed and low-speed data capture. Additionally, it houses 2 analog output channels that support a maximum update rate of 4 MS/s, also with a 12-bit resolution, enabling precise control signals to be generated.
For digital interfacing, the device includes 8 TTL/CMOS digital I/O channels that are bidirectional, providing versatility in digital communication. It also comes with 2 counters that have a 24-bit resolution, useful for precise counting and timing applications. The absolute accuracy for the analog input channels is specified at 184 mV, ensuring reliable and accurate measurements.
Powering the PCI-6115 is straightforward as it utilizes BUS power, eliminating the need for external power sources and simplifying the setup. Users are recommended to allow a 15-minute warm-up time for optimal performance, and it is advised to undergo a calibration period at least once every year to maintain accuracy.
Regarding software compatibility, this multifunction DAQ is compatible with NI-DAQmx, LabVIEW, LabWindows/CVI, and Measurement Studio. This wide range of compatibility ensures that users can easily integrate the PCI-6115 into various software environments for data acquisition and analysis.
