Data Acquisition Toolbox    

Using This Guide

Expected Background

To use the Data Acquisition Toolbox, you should have some familiarity with

If You Are a New User

For a brief review of basic data acquisition concepts, you should start with Introduction to Data Acquisition. Otherwise, start with Getting Started with the Data Acquisition Toolbox, which provides simple examples that illustrate how to input and output data. Then read the appropriate chapter based on the hardware subsystem you are using. For example, if you are acquiring data with an analog input subsystem, you should read Getting Started with Analog Input.

After you have successfully transferred data between your hardware device and MATLAB, you should read the appropriate reference material as needed. If you want detailed information about a specific function, refer to Function Reference. If you want detailed information about a specific property, refer to Base Property Reference, or Device-Specific Property Reference.

If You Are an Experienced User

Start with the Data Acquisition Toolbox Release Notes for a description of new and modified toolbox features.

You should then read the appropriate reference material as needed. If you want detailed information about a specific function, refer to Function Reference. If you want detailed information about a specific property, refer to Base Property Reference, or Device-Specific Property Reference.
