Data Sheet
The legacy National Instruments AT-AO-10 is a 12-bit analog output board for ISA computers. Please consider instead our newer and higher performance NI 672x devices (for PCI and PXI) The NI AT-AO-10 has 10 identical output channels, each of which has voltage output and can sink 4 to 20 mA current when connected to an external source. The voltage output of each channel is either bipolar or unipolar and is derived from the onboard reference or an external reference. A built-in 8-bit digital I/O port provides additional control capability.

Extended Warranties
National Instruments designs and manufactures all products to minimize failures, but we know unexpected failures can still occur. Extended warranties provide a fixed economical price at the time of system purchase covering any repair costs for up to three years.
- Significant cost savings compared to individual repair incidents
- Fault location, diagnostics, and repair by NI any time the system product fails
- All parts and labor costs covered as well as any adjustments needed to bring the hardware back to manufacturing specifications
Calibration
NI recognizes the need to maintain properly calibrated devices for high-accuracy measurements. We provide manual calibration procedures, services to recalibrate your products, and automated calibration software to calibrate many of our measurement products.
Training
NI training is the fastest, most certain route to productivity with NI tools and successful application development.
Repair Services
- You can return your registered product under warranty at no additional labor and parts cost. NI offers fault location, diagnostics, and repair any time the system fails as well as any adjustments needed to bring the hardware back to manufacturing specifications.
