NI PXI-6513 (64 Sink Outputs)

Low-Cost Industrial Digital l/O -- 30 V, Bank-Isolated

  • NI-DAQmx software technology for highest productivity and performance (NI-DAQmx 7.2 and higher)
  • Optical isolation in banks of 8 channels
  • Watchdogs, programmable power-up states, change detection, high-current drive
  • 64 sink outputs (±30 VDC, 475 mA for one channel, 125 mA for all channels)
  • Low-cost solution with advanced features for industrial control and manufacturing test applications
  • High-reliability industrial feature set

The National Instruments PXI-6513 module is an industrial 64-channel isolated digital output interface for PXI/CompactPCI systems. The NI PXI-6513 has 64 digital outputs with isolation provided in banks of eight channels. With programmable power-up states, you can configure the initial output states in software, to ensure safe operation when connected to industrial actuators (pumps/valves/motors/relays). Using digital I/O watchdogs, the device can go to a configurable safe output state if a computer or application fault occurs. NI-DAQmx makes it fast and easy to configure your device and take advantage of all the high-reliability industrial features with automatic code generation in LabVIEW, ANSI C, Microsoft Visual C++, or Microsoft .NET Languages (C# and Visual Basic .NET).
