National Instruments PXI instrument range

The latest for the PXI platform and software-defined modular instrumentation, including PXI Express Chassis, high-performance PXI Controllers and modular instruments including the PXIe-5665 vector signal analyser, which has a frequency range up to 14 GHz will be featured.

The release of the PXIe-5665 VSA complements the RF platform including the 2.7 GHz low-cost analyser and the 6.6 GHz products.

FPGA-enabled technologies, including FlexRIO modules, will also feature, consisting of FlexRIO FPGA modules for PXI and PXI Express, and FlexRIO adapter modules, which add I/O to the FPGA. Together, they form a high-performance, reconfigurable instrument powered by LabVIEW FPGA.

Additionally, with LabVIEW 2012 due to be released in August, visitors will be able to get up close and personal with the latest features of this graphical system design software.

The latest version of NI TestStand test management software will also be available. New features on display include the sequence analyser utility and the enhanced integration with LabVIEW software, including projects and classes.

Visitors will also be able to explore the latest for data acquisition, analysis and reporting, with software tools such as DIAdem 2012, a software tool that can be used to quickly locate, load, visualise, analyse and report measurement data collected during data acquisition and/or generated during simulations.

Some of the new features include a new object-oriented API for reporting, compatibility with more data types and new analysis functions.

Additionally, some of the latest data acquisition devices will also be on display, including C-series modules and CompactDAQ chassis. There are now over 60 C-Series modules available for a wide range of I/O including voltage, pulse generation, CAN communication, accelerometer, current and temperature.
