PCI-6510

Part number(s):

779081-01

32-Channel, ±30 VDC, Sink/Source Inputs, Bank-Isolated Digital I/O Device

Overview

The PCI-6510 is an industrial digital input interface, with a single bank of isolated channels. If a computer or application fault occurs, the PCI-6510 can use digital I/O watchdogs to switch to a configurable safe output state to ensure detection and safe recovery from fault conditions. Programmable input filters eliminate glitches/spikes and provide debouncing for digital switches/relays through a software-selectable digital filter.

Product (Part Number) Description	Recommended use cases
FlexLogger Professional (785748-3501) FlexLogger Professional, Subscription License, Download	Recommended for automated, extensible data logging with NI data acquisition (DAQ) hardware. Automate tests using alarms, triggers, and events, and expand capabilities with plug-ins. Key Features Multichassis synchronization—Synchronize multiple NI chassis for accurate, time-aligned measurements across high channel counts. Logging triggers—Start, stop, or segment data recording automatically based on sensor thresholds or other conditions to capture only what matters. Events—Respond to specific occurrences during a test, such as activating equipment when a condition is met (for example, start cooling fans when temperature exceeds a limit). Automation APIs—Control and monitor FlexLogger from external applications (Python, NI LabVIEW, or NI TestStand), enabling integration into larger automated test systems. Calculation channels—Perform real-time math on acquired data (averages, RMS, custom formulas) to track derived measurements as the test runs. Plug-ins—Extend FlexLogger with custom LabVIEW or Python plug-ins to integrate third-party hardware, perform custom analysis, or connect to lab systems. CAN/LIN logging—Acquire and log automotive network data alongside sensor measurements for complete vehicle or subsystem testing.	View Product Details
