All the cards share features, such as memory mapped registers for low-latency operation. Available accessories include cable kits and screw-terminal breakout adapter boards for quick and easy connectivity.
A complete driver support package is provided including a Windows sample program for testing your DIO devices. This simplifies the verification of proper operation. The cards install in most popular OSs, including DOS, Linux, Windows, VxWorks 7, and Windows Embedded Standard. Prices start at $94.
