Chapter 5 Analog Output
© National Instruments 5-13 X Series User Manual
Getting Started with AO Applications in Software
You can use an X Series device in the following analog output applications:
• Single-point (on-demand) generation
• Finite generation
• Continuous generation
• Waveform generation
You can perform these generations through programmed I/O or DMA data
transfer mechanisms. Some of the applications also use start triggers and
pause triggers.
Note For more information about programming analog output applications and triggers in
software, refer to the NI-DAQmx Help or the LabVIEW Help.
X Series devices use the NI-DAQmx driver. NI-DAQmx includes a
collection of programming examples to help you get started developing an
application. You can modify example code and save it in an application.
You can use examples to develop a new application or add example code to
an existing application.
To locate LabVIEW, LabWindows/CVI, Measurement Studio, Visual
Basic, and ANSI C examples, refer to the KnowledgeBase document,
Where Can I Find NI-DAQmx Examples?, by going to
ni.com/info and
entering the Info Code
