Description
The PXI Multifunction DAQ, part number 191501F-03 (779121-01) and model PXI-6281, is a high-performance data acquisition unit that offers a wide range of features for various applications. It is equipped with 16 Analog Input (AI) channels, providing a means to measure analog signals from various sources. The device boasts an 18 Bits resolution, allowing for precise data capturing. Additionally, it supports a maximum sample rate of 625 kS/s (kilo samples per second), enabling the capture of fast-changing signals.
For output functionalities, the PXI-6281 includes 2 Analog Output (AO) channels, offering the ability to generate analog signals for testing or control applications. The device also features 24 Digital I/O (DIO) channels, providing ample flexibility for interfacing with external digital devices, sensors, and actuators.
The accompanying driver software, NIDAQmx, facilitates the integration of the PXI-6281 with various development environments, simplifying the setup and data acquisition process. Users should allow a warm-up time of 15 minutes for optimum performance, and it is recommended to calibrate the device at least once every 2 years to maintain accuracy.
The unit weighs 7.9 oz and is designed to operate within a temperature range of 0 ºC to 55 ºC, with a storage temperature range of -20 ºC to 70 ºC. It can function reliably in environments with a humidity range of 10% RH to 90% RH, without condensation. These specifications ensure that the PXI-6281 is a robust and reliable solution for a wide range of data acquisition tasks in various environmental conditions.
