With the new NI 4065 DMMs, engineers can take advantage of the wide availability of PCI and PCI Express slots found in desktop computers, industrial PCs or expansion chassis to take DMM measurements in any environment – from a laboratory benchtop to a production test rack. With the NI-DMM Soft Front Panel and DMM/Switch Express VI software, engineers can either mimic benchtop DMM displays or build high-channel-count data-logging systems in seconds using NI SignalExpress. For automated test systems, NI 4065 DMMs are also compatible with NI TestStand, NI LabVIEW, Labwindows™/CVI and Measurement Studio. With ±300 VDC/Vrms of isolation, current measurements up to 3 A and 2- or 4-wire resistance measurements, NI 4065 DMMs offer a complete multimeter solution for basic 6½-digit measurement needs.
NI 4065 DMMs add to the existing family of NI DMM products that deliver industry-leading measurement accuracy and resolution (see table). Engineers can integrate the new DMMs with modular power supplies, precision sources and switch modules from National Instruments to build complete precision DC measurement systems.
Sampling of NI DMMs
The new NI 4065 DMMs represent the latest in a series of new NI products built on the PCI Express platforms. While the NI PCIe-4065 has no additional capabilities compared to the PCI version, it offers engineers measurement capability on the latest standard PC bus to ensure long-term compatibility for their test and measurement applications.
