nnnnOverview
nnnnThe NI cDAQ-9174 is a 4-slot NI CompactDAQ USB chassis designed for small, portable, mixed-measurement test systems. Combine
nnnnthe cDAQ-9174 with up to four NI C Series I/O modules for a custom analog input, analog output, digital I/O, and counter/timer
nnnnmeasurement system.
nnnnModules are available for a variety of sensor measurements including thermocouples, RTDs, strain gages, load and pressure
nnnntransducers, torque cells, accelerometers, flow meters, and microphones. NI CompactDAQ systems combine sensor measurements
nnnnwith voltage, current, and digital signals to create custom, mixed-measurement systems with a single, simple USB cable back to the
nnnnPC, laptop, or netbook.
nnnnThe cDAQ-9174 has four 32-bit general-purpose counter/timers built in. You can access these counters through an installed,
nnnnhardware-timed digital NI C Series module such as the NI 9401 or NI 9402 for applications that involve quadrature encoders, PWM,
nnnnevent counting, pulse train generation, and period or frequency measurement.
nnnnThe cDAQ-9174 chassis is shipped with the following:
nnnn- AC/DC converter that plugs directly into the chassis
nnnn- USB cable with a thumbscrew lock for strain relief
nnnnPower cord sold separately.
nnnnFor conditions where EMI could be an issue, you can use the 7.0 mm EMI suppression ferrites to suppress EMI for BNC cabling to the
nnnnchassis.
nnnnNI-DAQmx driver software is shipped with every chassis and includes the following:
nnnn- LabVIEWSignalExpress LE for simple data-logging applications
nnnn- API for LabVIEW, ANSI C/C++, C#, and Visual Basic .NET
