NI 6013/6014 Family Specifications This document lists the I/O terminal summary and specifications for the NI 6013/6014 family of devices. This family includes the following devices: • NI PCI-6013 • NI PCI-6014 I/O Terminal Summary Note With NI-DAQmx, National Instruments revised its terminal names so they are easier to understand and more consistent among NI hardware and software products. The revised terminal names used in this document are usually similar to the names they replace. For a complete list of Traditional NI-DAQ (Legacy) terminal names and their NI-DAQmx equivalents, refer to Terminal Name Equivalents of the E Series Help. Table 1.
