The NI Lab-PC-1200 is an ISA bus multifunction I/O board for data acquisition and control in laboratory, production, and industrial monitoring applications. It integrates 12-bit analog input with programmable gain, 12-bit analog output, 24 lines of digital I/O, and three 16-bit counter/timers on a single card for PC AT systems.
