daq 6281 used as a current source

[ruq]

Does anyone know if DAQ 6281-M can be used as a current source and how?

Thanks,

Ruq

Ruq,

The specifications make it clear that the 6281 AO is a voltage source with current limited to 5 mA.

If your maximum current requirement is less than that you might be able to use a large value resistor in series with the voltage output to simulate a current source.
