Device Configuration
The PCI-4451/4452 devices are completely software configurable.
However, you must perform two types of configuration—bus-related and
data acquisition-related.
The PCI-4451/4452 devices are fully compatible with the industry
standard PCI Local Bus Specification Revision 2.0. The PCI system
automatically performs all bus-related configurations and requires no
interaction from you. Bus-related configuration includes setting the device
base memory address and interrupt channel.
Data acquisition related configuration includes such settings as analog
input polarity and range, analog input mode, and others. You can modify
these settings through National Instruments application level software,
such as ComponentWorks, LabVIEW, LabWindows/CVI, and
VirtualBench or driver software such as NI-DAQ.
