I was wondering what information needs to be known when ordering a DAQ board. I have 3 sensors that will be feeding information into the board, a pressure sensor, a centrifugal pump, and a pump control module. I have the gain and excitation voltage of the pressure sensor. Do I need anything more for that? Also, when you order a board how do you modify it to work with your sensor, or do you order it to specifically work with your sensors? Finally, is there an advantage to having a tower DAQ vs. a USB? Is one more easily updated? As you can tell I'm very new to this, so any information/pointers would be much appreciated.
