Chapter 1 Getting Started with the cDAQ Controller
Using the cDAQ Controller
The cDAQ controller consists of four parts—C Series module(s), the cDAQ module interface,
the STC3, and the processor—as shown in Figure 1-28. These components digitize signals,
perform digital-to-analog conversions to generate analog output signals, measure and control
digital I/O signals, and provide signal conditioning.
