PCI-6713 different updaterate with new driverversion

[J_Edegger]

Hello!
 
I was just wondering if the maximum updaterate for PCI-6713 / 6733 cards has changed due to new driver version.
 
The old manual (322080E-01 / June 2002 Edition DAQ 671x & 673x Usermanual) said that the update rate
with 1 - 5 channels is max 1MS/s and for up to 8 channels it is max. 769kS/s (p60 chapter A-2)
 
The new manual (370735E-01 / June 2007) said nothing about any derating of updaterate with use of 8 channels.
May I therefore expect all 8 channels be able to operate with 1MS/s ?

Hello J_Edegger,
 
Thank you for your post on our webforum. The specifications from the NI 6713 and NI 6733 are documented in a seperate document. Please find the following links;
NI 6713; <a href="http://www.ni.com/pdf/manuals/371011b.pdf" target="_blank">http://www.ni.com/pdf/manuals/371011b.pdf</a>
NI 6733; <a href="http://www.ni.com/pdf/manuals/371232b.pdf" target="_blank">http://www.ni.com/pdf/manuals/371232b.pdf</a>
If you are using less then five channels a FIFO update rate from 1 MS/s is possible. There are some specifications when using PC memory; this is depending on your PC hardware configuration.
