NI-DAQ also internally addresses many of the complex issues between the computer and the
plug-in board such as programming interrupts and DMA controllers.  NI-DAQ maintains a
consistent software interface among its different versions so that you can change platforms with
minimal modifications to your code.  Figure 1-1 illustrates the relationship between NI-DAQ and
LabVIEW and LabWindows.  You can see that the data acquisition parts of LabVIEW and
LabWindows are functionally equivalent to the NI-DAQ software.

NI-DAQ, and Your Hardware

The National Instruments PC, AT, and MC Series DAQ boards are packaged with NI-DAQ
software for PC compatibles.  NI-DAQ software for PC compatibles comes with language
interfaces for Professional BASIC, Turbo Pascal, Turbo C, Turbo C++, Borland C++, and
Microsoft C for DOS; and Visual Basic, Turbo Pascal, Microsoft C with SDK, and Borland C++
for Windows.  You can use your SCXI-1122, together with other PC, AT, and MC Series DAQ
boards and SCXI hardware, with NI-DAQ software for PC compatibles.

The National Instruments NB Series DAQ boards are packaged with NI-DAQ software for
Macintosh.  NI-DAQ software for Macintosh comes with language interfaces for MPW C,
THINK C, Pascal, and Microsoft QuickBASIC.  Any language that uses Device Manager
Toolbox calls can access NI-DAQ software for Macintosh.  You can use NB Series DAQ boards
and SCXI hardware with NI-DAQ software for Macintosh.
