National Instruments recommends M Series DAQ and NI-DAQmx driver software for new applications. Quadruple your resolution, increase sampling by six times, and improve your accuracy with the 18-bit, 625 kS/s PXI-6281.
Add sensor and high-voltage measurement capability to your E Series device with NI SCC or SCXI signal conditioning. The National Instruments PXI-6030E uses E Series technology to deliver high-performance, reliable data acquisition capabilities to meet a wide range of application requirements. You get 100 kS/s sampling and 16-bit resolution with 16 single-ended analog inputs. Depending on your type of hard drive, the NI PXI-6030E can stream to disk at rates up to 100 kS/s.
Using NI hardware, you have flexible OS, application development environment, and application software choices. Complete your DAQ system with NI signal conditioning to measure virtually any type of sensor and voltage.

System Assurance Programs
Reduce your setup time and total cost of ownership, and get a system you can use out of the box with National Instruments system assurance programs. System assurance programs include:
- Installation and integration test of all individual hardware
- Courtesy installation of system driver sets and application development environments
- Three-year warranty and calibration coverage
- Custom documentation plus a custom restore and startup utility
This service is only available for PXI, NI CompactRIO, and NI Compact FieldPoint systems.
Extended Warranties
National Instruments designs and manufactures all products to minimize failures, however 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. In addition, they offer the following benefits:
- 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 restore the hardware to manufacturing specifications
For more information about your warranty options:
Calibration
NI recognizes the need to maintain properly calibrated devices for high-accuracy measurements. NI provides manual calibration procedures, services to recalibrate your products, and automated calibration software to calibrate many NI measurement products.
Training
NI training is the fastest, most certain route to productivity with NI tools and successful application development.
Repair Services
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 restore the hardware to manufacturing specifications.
