I have started working with a USB 6259 screw terminal DAQ device. However, I am not sure how to connect the input pins and collect from the
output pins. any documentation or pictures would greatly help.

The user manual is probably a good place to start:

Hi Afrin,

Welcome to the forums! The device pinouts for the USB-6259 can be found in the last section of the NI 625x Specifications Manual. Page 8 of the DAQ Getting Started Guide also discusses how you can set up a task in the DAQ Assistant or Measurement and Automation Explorer (MAX) and see the Connection Diagram. This is a very useful tool that I still use.

I hope these resources help, Mallori M.
