Description
The product described is part of the NI ELVIS series, which includes the part numbers 778606-02, 778748-02, 777448-63, 778606-03, and 189323D-01. This series falls under the category of NI ELVIS, designed specifically for use in educational laboratory suites. The primary application of this product series is in data gathering, control, experiments, analysis, and design testing, making it an essential tool for educational purposes.
The software interface for this product is a Graphical User Interface (GUI), which facilitates easy setting adjustments and hardware interfacing. This feature ensures a user-friendly experience for instructors and students alike. The DC power supply voltages provided by the device are +15 V, -15 V, and +5 V, offering versatility for various experimental setups.
Digital I/O Channels come with 8 bits of resolution, ensuring accurate data input and output operations. Additionally, the device boasts 2 analog output channels for the Arbitrary Waveform Generator, capable of reaching a maximum frequency defined by the analog output rate divided by 10. The resolution of the Arbitrary Waveform Generator can be either 12 or 16 bits, depending on the Data Acquisition (DAQ) device used, thereby providing flexibility in signal generation and analysis.
Oscilloscope specifications are dependent on the DAQ device utilized, indicating the product’s adaptability to different experimental requirements. The Frequency Generator of the NI ELVIS series has a frequency range of 5 Hz to 250 kHz and an offset range of ±5 V, with a total of 10 V of AM/FM voltage, allowing for a wide range of signal generation capabilities.
Compatibility is a key feature of this product series, with specific bundle part numbers such as 778748-02 for the PCI-6251 and 777448-63 for the USB-6251, ensuring that users can select the configuration that best suits their laboratory needs. Additionally, the product variations include a workstation model (778606-02, 189323D-01) and a workstation model specifically designed for education (778606-03), providing options tailored to different learning environments.
