PXI (High-Speed, High-Performance Testing)

 The PXI modular measurement system is a robust computer platform dedicated to measurement and automatic control using general purpose PC technology (PCI bus). PXI can meet any need with its highly reliable body, numerous on-board I/O slots, and advanced timing/trigger functions. National Instruments offers more than 200 different PXI modules. In addition, because PXI is an open industry standard, more than 70 vendors offer more than 1,500 different modules.

CompactRIO (High-Speed Control and Distributed Measurement)

 The use of FPGAs supports high-speed control up to several tens of MHz and provides hardware-level determinism and reliability. The latest synchronization technology, TSN (Time Sensitive Networking), enables time synchronization and deterministic communication, simplifying the construction of distributed measurement systems. In addition, more than 100 I/O modules with built-in signal conditioning functions and high-precision A/D converters allow direct connection of various external devices and sensors.

CompactDAQ (Low Cost)

The CompactDAQ system is a customizable solution for performing electrical/physical measurements in benchtop or distributed architectures. Synchronizing CompactDAQ chassis creates a distributed system. In addition, CompactDAQ controllers are available in two types, one running Windows and the other running a real-time OS, allowing stand-alone operation.

PC-Based System (Benchtop Measurement)

 PC-based measurement/control systems, which connect NI hardware products to a PC via USB or Ethernet, come in two main types. ​One that connects the multi-function I/O device directly to the PC, and the other that accommodates I/O modules with signal conditioning in a CompactDAQ chassis connected to the PC.

SystemLink (Integrated Management Platform)

 SystemLink is a software platform for integrated management of measurement systems from control/monitoring/diagnosis to automatic measurement, data standardization/sharing/data retrieval/protection, support for system management operations, and integration with other systems and the Web. Each function is modularized, allowing you to start with basic functions and gradually add functions and expand the system as you experience the benefits. Therefore, necessary functions can be built in a short period of time and at a low cost, depending on the current status of the organization and the stage.
 It is also REST API-compatible for easy integration with custom web systems and other products/other systems and features excellent openness, scalability, and flexibility. It can be linked to any measurement system, analysis system, analysis application, database, etc., not limited to NI products.

LabVIEW (System Development Environment)

 LabVIEW is system development software for applications requiring test, measurement, and control. It features quick access to hardware and quickly extracts insights from data. It visualizes various aspects of the application, such as hardware configuration, measurement data, debugging, etc. You can easily integrate measurement hardware from any vendor, display complex logic on diagrams, develop data analysis algorithms, and design custom engineering user interfaces.

DIAdem (Data Analysis)

 DIAdem is an integrated software environment to increase efficiency during the post-processing of measurement data.​ It standardizes the post-processing of measurement data by teams and reduces the time spent on data processing while improving confidence in the quality of the results. You can also share and load custom functions and report templates created by domain experts, reuse scripts to automate the data workflow for your entire team, and seamlessly extends to server products as your team or organization's needs expand.
