Description
The PXI-6229 is a multifunction DAQ device designed for a variety of applications including research, automation, and design confirmation. It belongs to the category of PXI Multifunction DAQ and carries the part numbers 779630-01 and 779115-01. This device is a crucial component in data acquisition systems, working seamlessly with transducers, sensors, cables, signal conditioning devices, programming software, and a PC to ensure accurate data collection and analysis.
At 25°C, the PXI-6229 boasts impressive specifications, including 16 differential or 32 single-ended analog input channels, 4 analog output channels, 48 total digital I/O/PFI channels, 2 counters/timers, 16 bits resolution, and a 250 kS/s maximum sample rate. These features make it an ideal choice for handling complex data acquisition tasks.
The device requires annual calibration to maintain its accuracy and reliability. It offers flexible calibration options, including high-quality NIST accredited calibrations through a third party and basic (unaccredited) in-house calibration. The PXI-6229 utilizes two 68-pin connectors for connectivity and supports a range of accessories such as a screw terminal block, BNC terminal block, and SCC.
The SCC system, in particular, features high bandwidth, connectivity options, easily transportable, minimal channel systems, and a flexible structure. These characteristics enhance the device’s overall performance and adaptability to various project requirements.
National Instruments has announced the mature status of the PXI-6229, but it remains available for purchase and repairs through Apex Waves. This ensures that users can continue to rely on the device
