The 7700 and 7702 modules provide two additional channels
that support current measurements that use the DAQ6510
current measure functions. Refer to the switch module
datasheets for the current carry specifi cations.
The 7705, 7711, and 7712 provide signal switching only and no
direct measurement using the DAQ6510. Refer to the switch
module datasheets to determine which unit is appropriate for
your switching application.
Why did my settings change?
Many of the commands in the DAQ6510 are saved with the
measure function that was active when you set them. For
example, assume you have the measure function set to current
and you set a value for display digits. When you change the
measure function to voltage, the display digits value changes
to the value that was last set for the voltage measure function.
When you return to the current measure function, the display
digits value returns to the value you set previously.
