The NI PCI-6115/6120 is now installed. You are now ready to configure the 
hardware and software.

Because of the NI standard architecture for data acquisition and the PCI bus 
specification, the NI 6115/6120 is completely software-configurable. Two 
types of configuration are performed on the NI 6115/6120: bus-related and 
data acquisition-related configuration.

The NI PCI-6115/6120 is fully compatible with the industry-standard 
PCI Local Bus Specification Revision 2.2. This compatibility allows the 
PCI system to automatically perform all bus-related configurations with no 
user interaction. Bus-related configuration includes setting the device base 
memory address and interrupt channel.

The NI PXI-6115/6120 is fully compatible with the industry-standard PXI 
Specification Revision 2.0. This allows the PXI/CompactPCI system to 
automatically perform all bus-related configurations with no user 
interaction. Bus-related configuration includes setting the device base 
memory address and interrupt channel.

Data acquisition-related configuration, which you must perform, includes 
such settings as analog input coupling and range, and others. You can 
modify these settings using NI-DAQ or application-level software, such as 
LabVIEW and Measurement Studio.

To configure the device in Measurement & Automation Explorer (MAX), 
refer to either the DAQ Quick Start Guide or to the NI-DAQ User Manual 
for PC Compatibles at
