This chapter explains how to install and configure the NI 6115/6120.

Before you install the NI 6115/6120, complete the following steps to install 
the software:

1.

Install the ADE, such as LabVIEW or Measurement Studio, according 
to the instructions on the CD and the release notes.

2.

Install NI-DAQ according to the instructions on the CD and the 
DAQ Quick Start Guide included with the device. When using the 
DAQ Quick Start Guide, refer to the pinout for the NI 6110/6111, 
which is identical to the pinout for the NI 6115/6120.

It is important to install NI-DAQ before installing the NI 6115/6120 to ensure that 

the device is properly detected.

You can install the NI 6115/6120 in any available expansion slot in the 
computer. However, to achieve best noise performance, leave as much 
room as possible between the NI 6115/6120 and other devices and 
hardware.

The following are general installation instructions, so consult the computer 
user manual or technical reference manual for specific instructions and 
warnings.

Choose an unused PXI slot in the system. For maximum performance, 
the NI PXI-6115/6120 has an onboard DMA controller that you can 
use only if the device is installed in a slot that supports bus arbitration,
