About This Manual
The 6023, 6024, and 6025 E Series boards are high-performance
multifunction analog, digital, and timing I/O boards for PCI, PXI,
PCMCIA, and CompactPCI bus computers. Supported functions include
analog input, analog output, digital I/O, and timing I/O.
This manual describes the electrical and mechanical aspects of the
PCI-6023E, PCI-6024E, DAQCard-6024E, PCI-6025E, and PXI-6025E
boards from the E Series product line and contains information concerning
their operation and programming.
Conventions Used in This Manual
The following conventions are used in this manual:
<> Angle brackets containing numbers separated by an ellipsis represent a
range of values associated with a bit or signal name—for example,
DBIO<3..0>.
♦ The ♦ symbol indicates that the text following it applies only to a specific
product, a specific operating system, or a specific software version.
This icon denotes a note, which alerts you to important information.
This icon denotes a caution, which advises you of precautions to take to
avoid injury, data loss, or a system crash.
bold Bold text denotes items that you must select or click on in the software,
such as menu items and dialog box options. Bold text also denotes
parameter names.
CompactPCI CompactPCI refers to the core specification defined by the PCI Industrial
Computer Manufacturer’s Group (PICMG).
italic Italic text denotes variables, emphasis, a cross reference, or an introduction
to a key concept. This font also denotes text that is a placeholder for a word
or value that you must supply.
monospace
Monospace font denotes text or characters that you should enter from the
keyboard, sections of code, programming examples, and syntax examples.
This font is also used for the proper names of disk drives, paths, directories,
