I would like to know if the digital inputs in this card can work with a pressure transmitter. I'm working with a test machine that needs to compare pressure of about 2000psi and activate some valves (24V). If this can read a sensor it would be great to just use one card for this project.
This is the transmitter that I want to use: http://www.ashcroft.com/products/pressure_transducers_transmitters/high/upload/AshA2-1-3.pdf (0-10Vdc)
If I can't use the digital inputs for this I would be grateful to get other options.

Hi F430gx,
Just as Dennis said, it seems that you’re trying to connect an analog signal output to a digital signal input. NI 6514 is a digital I/O interface so I suggest you to switch to an analogue DAQ like the 6281 or similar.
Hope this helps.

Thank you.
I think that I will be using the PCI-6514 for the digital I/O because they work with 24V all, and get the NI USB-6210 for AI (I just need 6 AI everything else is digital 24V).
I think this is all that I need for the project, any advice of what I'm doing will be great.
Have a nice day 🙂
