NI 6070E/6071E Family
DAQPad-6070E
The DAQPad-6070E is a Plug-and-Play, multifunction AI, AO, DIO, and
TIO device.
The DAQPad-6070E features the following:
• 16 AI channels (eight differential) with 12-bit resolution
• Two AO channels with 12-bit resolution
• Eight lines of TTL-compatible DIO
• Two 24-bit counter/timers for TIO
• A 68-pin I/O connector
Note The BNC version of the DAQPad-6070E has a 30-pin I/O connector.
The DAQPad-6070E is a switchless, jumperless, hot-pluggable DAQ
device for 1394. The 1394 interface automatically handles the assignment
of all host resources, so you can install the device without powering off the
computer. You can connect up to 64 DAQ devices to a single computer
using 1394, although you will run out of bus bandwidth if all devices
operate at full rate. The DAQPad-6070E provides up to 250 V of DC
functional isolation from the PC.
The NI DAQPad-6070E has an onboard watchdog timer that continuously
resets the device until the device successfully enumerates with the host
operating system and the device driver initiates transactions to the device.
To avoid continuous resets, make sure the device and host computer are
powered on, the 1394 cable is attached to the host computer, and the device
drivers are installed.
There are two versions of the DAQPad-6070E: the DAQPad-6070E with a
68-pin SCSI male I/O connector and the DAQPad-6070E with BNC and
removable screw terminal connectors. Table A-7 illustrates the different
I/O connectivity and form factors of each version.
