Where Can I find information about register level programming the PXI 6259?

I will be writing an application using the PXI-6259 that cannot use NI-DAQmx and need any information available that will aid me in register level programming.

Hello harin,

Unfortunately ther is no RLP (register level programming) manual out for our M series board. What are the particular circumstances forcing you to use RLP? Perhaps we can find another solution.

Take care,

We are woking on the documentation, but it is not yet available. I'm also curious what is driving you to require RLP instead of using NI-DAQmx. What OS are you using? What features do you need? (i.e. DMA, advanced counters, correlated DIO, etc.)

Hi

 

We use VISA based Register level programming for E Series DIO channels for one specific purpose. We access only the following DAQ-STC Registers

 

DIO_Control_Register  
DIO_Output_Register   
DIO_Parallel_Input_Register 
Window_Address_Register  
Window_Data_Read_Register 
Window_Data_Write_Register 

The E Series RLP manual provides their address and offset correctly. We want to use the M Series Board and I am unable to find the DAQ-STCII RLP details. I tried the entire NI Site. Please provide the STC II registermap or atleast the register information of the above registers.

 

thanks and regards

Sathish

lIt sounds like you are looking for the DDK. There is a dedicated board for that.

 

p.s. Try to avoid posting to such old threads.

Hi Sathish,

Given how much blatant, undisclosed, and unrepentant cross-posting [1] [2] [3] [4] [5] you've done to ask this question, I gave you the benefit of the doubt that you were new to the NI forums and didn't understand the etiquette of this community. However, looking at your profile, you've been around just over 8 years! How can you be so selfishly impolite?

To your credit, you at least searched the forums to find (somewhat) relevant to which topics to reply, but as you said you 'tried the entire NI Site', I'm surprised that you missed the DDK home page [6] that has a link to the M Series register map.
