DAQWare for NI DAQmx Features Overview

TLA has developed a series of course lab kits, all of which provideDAQWareExperimental software is used for experimental measurements, recording, and analysis.

TLA for different brands of data acquisition cards supporting DAQWare experimental software, software interface as far as possible to maintain consistency, the operating logic to follow the TLA series of courses experimental suite operating characteristics.

DAQmxis a collection of drivers for NI data acquisition cards, copyrighted by NI (NI has now been acquired by Emerson).DAQWare for NI DAQmx is TLA's enhanced data acquisition application software based on the NI DAQmx driver.

DAQWare for NI DAQmx is lab software for all NI DAQmx data acquisition cards. Example:NI ELVIS Traditional,ELVIS II/II+,NI myDAQ,NI USB-6001,NI USB-6002,NI USB-6003,NI USB-6009,NI 6221(PCI, USB, PCIe, PXI, PXIe),NI 6251 (PCI, USB, PCIe, PXI, PXIe),NI MSeries, etc.

The NIDAQmx driver cannot be used with multifunction data acquisition cards not manufactured by NI. That is, the DAQWare for NI DAQmx application software is not available for multifunction data acquisition cards manufactured by third parties.

DAQWare for NI DAQmx typically supports functions involving analog input channels (Analog Input), analog output channels (Analog Out), and counters (Couter). These data acquisition functions are enhanced by DAQWare for laboratory desktop applications, covering the instrument functions of traditional desktop instruments, such as: oscilloscopes, signal generators, programmable power supplies, multimeters, baud plotters, spectrum analyzers, etc.. It also provides practical functions beyond traditional desktop instruments such as data logging, collaborative data analysis, and advanced programming. Table 1 lists the specific features of DAQWare for NI DAQmx.
