Acquire data directly into one of the most powerful programmable data analysis environments and go from data acquisition, through analysis, to the creation of publication-quality graphics in a single environment!
The Igor NIDAQ Tools MX is supported by Windows 7 or later and works with most multifunction DAQ devices supported by National Instruments NI-DAQmx driver software and supports Windows 7 or later.
With NIDAQ Tools MX you can read analog inputs and scan into Igor waves in memory or scan analog inputs to disk to analyze later, as well as control counter-timers and multiple DAQ devices simultaneously.
NIDAQ Tools MX includes several pre-programmed control panels to provide a point-and-click interface to basic data acquisition functions. Use the panels as-is, or modify the procedure files to customize them for your own purposes.
More complex, customized applications can be created using Igor's built-in programming language, extended by NIDAQ Tools MX to include data acquisition and control functionality. Igor control panels can be used to make a nice user interface for DAQ systems.
NIDAQ Tools MX Functions:
- Read analog inputs
- Scan analog inputs into Igor waves (data arrays) in memory
- Scan analog inputs to disk, then use Igor to pick out interesting parts later
- Set analog output voltages
- Generate arbitrary waveforms from Igor data arrays
- Digital i/o including static, timed and handshaking, depending on hardware support
- Control counter-timers for pulse train and one-shot pulse generation, period and frequency measurement, etc
- Control multiple DAQ devices simultaneously
