If you are looking for the most advanced multifunction data acquisition (DAQ) devices on the market, then the\u00a0National Instruments X\u00a0<\/strong><\/a>S<\/strong><\/a>eries<\/strong><\/a>\u00a0may be perfect. They are designed to meet the most demanding test and measurement applications and offer a vast range of features.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The\u00a0X series DAQ devices<\/strong>\u00a0utilize NI-STC3 timing technology to provide advanced timing, triggering and synchronization, using four timers and 100 MHz timebase to give an improved triggering response.<\/p>\n

National Instruments<\/strong>\u00a0has followed a route of enhancing existing systems, which makes upgrading from NI M devices to X devices is an easy process. Your investment in coding and accessories is secure as the X series is backward compatible.<\/p>\n

BUS technologies<\/h3>\n

Choosing the correct bus technology will depend on the application. Where portability and plug-and-play are the over-riding factors, then USB should be chosen. For high bandwidth, low latency and additional features then either PCI Express or PXI Express are available, providing a throughput of up to 250 MB\/s in each direction. X Series DAQ devices are compatible with all versions of PCI Express, from x1 to x16.<\/p>\n

USB sustained transfer speeds are available up to 32 MB\/s depending on the system thanks to the patented\u00a0National Instruments Signal Streaming Technology<\/strong>\u00a0used on the\u00a0X Series DAQ Devices<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

National Instruments driver and software<\/h3>\n

The X series is compatible with the\u00a0National Instruments DAQmx<\/strong>\u00a0version 9 drivers which provide the\u00a0NI-MAX configuration utility<\/strong>\u00a0along with the DAQ Assistant, giving detailed configuration control and the ability to write applications quickly.<\/p>\n

Multiple X Series devices can now be synchronized in one task, using the NI-DAQmx driver and use the DAQ Assistant to log the data easily in TDMS files.<\/p>\n

Parallel processing is now possible using the NI-DAQmx driver software and can be easily programmed through National Instruments LabVIEW software or other programming environments. Multiple threads can be executed and with the addition of multicore PC\u2019s extremely high-performance data acquisition can be achieved with ease.<\/p>\n

National Instruments X Series DAQ devices<\/strong>\u00a0are also supplied with LabVIEW SignalExpress software, including hundreds of example programs to assist in rapid development. The interactive measurement software is designed to be simple to use and is able to display information from hundreds of DAQ devices.<\/p>\n

Sampling<\/h3>\n

National Instruments X Series devices<\/strong>\u00a0can sample more than 200 separate channels simultaneously without using multiplexing allowing sampling rates to be maintained as you increase the number of channels. Analog sampling rates are up to 2 million samples per second through 16 simultaneous channels and with an input resolution of 16 bit.<\/p>\n

Digital signals can be clocked at a maximum rate of 10 Mhz using an external or onboard clock. The USB devices include onboard memory with either 32 or 64 ms refresh rates, ensuring a finite transfer level of acquisition data.<\/p>\n

By synchronizing multiple\u00a0X Series DAQ devices\u00a0<\/strong>on PCI or PXI interfaces, further additional features become available.<\/p>\n

Applications<\/h3>\n

The multifunction\u00a0National Instruments X Series<\/strong>\u00a0devices are capable of a vast range of applications, including data logging, control systems, test automation and acquisition and visualization of static data and waveforms.<\/p>\n

National Instruments<\/strong>\u00a0is continuously updating the range of devices and some of the\u00a0X Series DAQ Devices<\/strong>\u00a0have been classified as mature. Apex Waves specializes in supplying these mature components and X Series devices, such as the\u00a0PCIe-6321<\/strong><\/a>,\u00a0PCIe-6323<\/strong><\/a>,\u00a0PXIe-6358<\/strong><\/a>, and\u00a0USB-6341<\/strong><\/a>\u00a0are still available from for purchase from Apex Waves.<\/p>\n
