This content provides support for older products and technology, so you may notice outdated links or obsolete information about operating systems or other relevant products.
Use this guide to match your NI Multifunction I/O (MIO) 60xx/60xxE Models PCI, PXI, or PCMCIA DAQ device with a compatible cable and accessory to meet the needs of your application, replacing or expanding your current configuration, or verifying that existing parts can be used in a different configuration.
NI Multifunction I/O (MIO) 60xx Models (formerly referred to as NI B Series and E Series) are the legacy generation of NI MIO hardware. They allow for analog, digital and counter input and output through a variety of connectivity options.
It is important to work through this guide sequentially to identify and then pair up your device with compatible cables and accessories. To do this, complete the following steps:
Note: Using the page search functionality in your browser to locate your model may speed up this process, typically CTRL+F on Windows or ⌘+F on OS X.
Begin by using the following tables to locate your device or module. Once found, note your connector type, pin count, and any other notes for reference. Next, move to the Cable and Accessory Compatibility Tables.
Important Note: "Group" used in this context is solely to categorize devices together that use the same cables and accessories. It does not necessarily indicate similar functionality, specifications, or other commonalities between the devices.

Find the compatibility table that matches the pin count and connector type of your device. If you have questions on terminology, refer to the Glossary. After you have identified the cable and accessory options for your device from this section, move to the Known Limitations and Issues List.
Note: To help keep the size down of the compatibility tables, the terms terminal block and connector block are used interchangeably.
Use this table to identify compatible SCSI cables and accessories.
Use this table to identify compatible VHDCI cables and accessories.
Use this table to identify compatible SCSI 0.050 D-Type cables and accessories.
Use this table to identify compatible 37-pin DSUB cables and accessories.

This section is important to review as not every cable and accessory combination allows access to the full functionality of your NI DAQ Multifunction 60xx/60xxE (formerly B Series and E Series) device or module. This list contains notes about known limitations when using certain combinations of DAQ cables and accessories. If your device is not listed in this section, there are no known exceptions.
Model | Note |
---|---|
6025E | To enable connection on all lines of the device/module with the cable, you must connect to two 50-pin connector blocks. The CB-100 kit contains two CB-50 connector blocks and a R1005050 cable. |
6031E | The SCC-68 User Guide (August 2006), P/N 374748B-01, incorrectly omits PCI/PXI-6031E support with the SCC-68. |
Model | Note |
---|---|
SHC68-68-EPM | For VHDCI connections NI recommends that you use the SHC68-68-EPM cable; however, an SH68-68-EP cable will work with NI Multifunction I/O 60xx/60xxE Models (formerly B Series and E Series). The SHC68-68-EPM cable is a newer design featuring additional shielding and specific cable pairings to improve noise performance. |
SHC68-C68-EPM | The SHC68-C68-EPM can be used for any device or module for which the SHC68-68-EPM is recommended. The SHC68-C68-EPM is intended for custom breakout fixtures that use the VHDCI 0.8 mm connector. DAQ accessories only feature a SCSI 0.050 D-Type connector and will not work with this cable. |
SH68-68-EPM | For SCSI 0.050 D-Type connections NI recommends that you use the SH68-68-EPM cable; however, an SH68-68-EP cable will work with NI Multifunction I/O 60xx/60xxE Models (formerly B Series and E Series). The SH68-68-EPM cable is a newer design featuring additional shielding and specific cable pairings to improve noise performance. |
SH68-50 | Some functionality is unavailable when you use the SH68-50 cable with the NI 6013, 6014, 6023E, 6024E, 6036E device or module. |
Review the DAQ Cable and Accessory Guides for more information about this terminology and other descriptors.
Note: NI 60xx/60xxE are considered legacy DAQ Multifunction I/O devices and modules. NI recommends using PCIe/PXIe/USB-63xx models (formerly X Series) or PCI/PXI/USB-62xx (formerly M Series) models for new systems.
When purchasing an NI DAQ Multifunction I/O 60xx/60xxE Model (formerly B Series and E Series) device or module, for ease of use, the cables and accessories are listed on the product selection page. To begin browsing NI DAQ devices and modules, visit ni.com/daq.
You may also purchase your cables and accessories separately.
