Step 10. Configure Channels and Tasks
This step applies only if you are programming your device using NI-DAQ
or NI application software. Refer to the Configure Channels and Tasks
seciton in the DAQ Getting Started Guide.
When using the DAQ Assistant to create a new task, refer to Table 4 for the
measurement types in NI-DAQmx and how they correspond to the SCC
modules.
For additional information about SCC-XX module-specific channel/task
settings, refer to the individual SCC-XX module user guide.
