CompactDAQ
CompactDAQ is a modular data acquisition system from National Instruments (NI) designed for desktop and bench-top measurement. It combines a compact chassis with plug-in signal-conditioning I/O modules and connects to a host computer via USB or Ethernet, allowing data acquisition, logging, and controlled measurements.
Hardware features include a backplane in the chassis that provides timing, synchronization, and power to the
Software and data handling rely on NI-DAQmx drivers, enabling configuration of tasks, channels, timing, and triggering
Typical applications span laboratory testing, industrial process monitoring and control, environmental data logging, automotive and machinery
