NI PCIE 6259 Register Map

[iree]

I need to write a custom driver for this board. Does anyone know where I can get a regsiter map?

Hello,

There is a Measurement Hardware Driver Development Kit that has this type of information.  At the bottom of this page there is a link to the download site.  The register map for the 6259 PCI and PCIe are the same.

I had already downloaded DDK and found the Register Map document. At a minumum this is what I need but I thought the information was on the little light side. It would be nice to have some descriptions for the registers and their bit fields. Also, the "M Series Register Map" is a Preliminary document. Any idea when the next version will be available?

I did not find any information about board specific Register Maps so I assume that this map is good for all 'M' Series boards.

I was hoping to find something like the "PCI E Series Register-Level Programmer Manual" at: https://www.ni.com/docs/en-US/bundle/341079b/resource/341079b.pdf .

Reading through the posts it seems that there is a lot of differences between the 'E' and 'M' series mulit-function DAQs so

Thank you for the reply.

Your assumption that the available M Series register map applies to all M Series boards is correct.  As Jesse indicated, the register map will be the same for PCIe and PCI.  While we do not provide a comprehensive register level programming manual, like we do for the older E Series, we do provide many examples to help you get started.  If you have any specific questions that are not answered by the register map or the existing examples, you can post those questions to this forum so our developers and other customers can help out.
