Simplicity 6008 User Manual download pdf

Hardware Description

The National Instruments USB-6008 and USB-6009 multifunction

data acquisition devices provide reliable data acquisition at a low

price. With plug-and-play USB connectivity, these devices are simple

enough for quick measurements, but versatile enough for more

complex measurement applications.

Software Description

The NI USB-6008 and USB-6009 include a ready-to-run data

logger application that acquires and logs up to eight channels of

analog data. For more functionality, NI-DAQmx Base software is a

multiplatform driver with a subset of the NI-DAQmx programming

interface. Use it to develop customized DAQ applications with

NI LabVIEW or C-based development environments.

Recommended Accessories

The USB-6008 and USB-6009 have built-in connectivity, so no

additional accessories are required.

Common Applications

The USB-6008 and USB-6009 are ideal for a number of applications

here economy, small size, and simplicity are essential, such as:

• Data logging – Log environmental or voltage data quickly and easily

• Academic lab use – The low price facilitates student ownership

of DAQ hardware for completely interactive lab-based courses.

Academic pricing available. Visit

ni.com/academic for details.

• Embedded OEM applications

Information for Student Ownership

To supplement simulation, measurement, and automation theory

courses with practical experiments, NI has developed the USB-6008

and USB-6009 student kits that include LabVIEW Student Edition

and a ready-to-run data logger application. These kits are exclusively

for students, giving them a powerful, low-cost hands-on learning

tool. Visit

ni.com/academic for more details.
