(for 6534 only)
With NI-DAQ driver software, you can configure your devices
interactively, write custom programs, and perform digital I/O
transfers easily. With NI-DAQ, the NI 6533 and NI 6534 devices
are software-compatible, providing a seamless upgrade path.
Sharing clocks and triggers between NI 653x and other
measurement devices is also greatly simplified. To get you started
with your application quickly, NI-DAQ includes numerous example
programs for LabVIEW and other ADEs.

You can develop event-driven application programs with NI 653x devices
by programming them to generate a message when conditions you
specify are met. The messages can be generated when a specified
number of bytes have been transferred, when a specified input pattern
is matched, or when a measurement operation completes.

Onboard Memory
Table 2. Signal Names and Descriptions
NI 6534 devices provide two groups of 32 MB of onboard memory, so
you can perform pattern I/O at deterministic high rates as long as the
patterns can fit in one of these memory locations. To improve system
performance for repetitive pattern output applications, you can load
your patterns into the onboard memory once and then output them
repeatedly, without reloading them across the computer bus.

DMA Control Circuitry
NI 653x devices for PCI and PXI use the National Instruments MITE PCI
interface. The MITE provides bus-master operation, PCI burst transfers,
and high-performance DMA controllers for fast, continuous, scatter-
gather DMA.

All NI 653x devices except the DAQCard-6533 use
the PXI trigger bus or RTSI Bus to send and
receive clock and trigger signals to and from other
devices in your system. Using these buses, you
can create synchronized systems with large
numbers of digital I/O lines and systems in which
digital I/O is synchronized with other types of
measurements. The PXI-653x modules feature
phase-lock loop (PLL) circuitry to tightly
synchronize with other PLL devices.

I/O Connector and Power-Up States
All digital I/O is through a 68-pin cable connector.
See pin assignments and descriptions in
Figure 2 and Table 2. You can independently
select the power-on state for the control and
data lines through the use of CPULL and
DPULL, respectively.
