From section 2-15 of the manual:
The DIO lines on the NI 783xR are TTL-compatible. When configured as
inputs, they can receive signals from 5 V TTL, 3.3 V LVTTL, 5 V CMOS,
and 3.3 V LVCMOS devices. When configured as outputs, they can send
signals to 5 V TTL, 3.3 V LVTTL, and 3.3 V LVCMOS devices. Because
the digital outputs provide a nominal output swing of 0 to 3.3 V
(3.3 V TTL), the DIO lines cannot drive 5 V CMOS logic levels.
To interface to 5 V CMOS devices, you must provide an external pull-up
resistor to 5 V. This resistor pulls up the 3.3 V digital output from the
NI 783xR to 5 V CMOS logic levels. Refer to Appendix A, Specifications,
for detailed DIO specifications.
