How to Use this Guide
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:
- Find your module or device in the Device List.
- Use the Cable and Accessory Compatibility Tables to identify your device.
- Check the Known Limitations and Issues List for any known limitations you may encounter.
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.
Device List
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.
Group 1: 68-Pin Counter/Timer 66xx Models Device And Module
| Model | Connector Type | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| PCI-6601 | SCSI | |
| PCI-6602 | SCSI | |
| PXI-6602 | SCSI | |
| PXI-6608 | SCSI | |
| PCIe-6612 | SCSI | |
| PXIe-6612 | SCSI | |
| PXIe-6614 | SCSI | |
Group 2: 100-Pin Counter/Timer 66xx Models Device And Module
| Model | Connector Type | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| PCI-6624 | SCSI | Refer to the Known Limitations and Issues List |
| PXI-6624 | SCSI | Refer to the Known Limitations and Issues List |
Cable and Accessory Compatibility Tables
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.
Group 1: SCSI 68-Pin Counter/Timer 66xx Models Device And Module
Use this table to identify compatible SCSI cables and accessories.
Group 2: SCSI 100-Pin Counter/Timer 66xx Models Device or Module
Use this table to identify compatible SCSI 0.050 D-Type cables and accessories.

Known Limitations and Issues List
This section is important to review because not every cable and accessory combination allows access to the full functionality of your NI DAQ Counter/Timer 66xx (formerly TIO Series) device or module. This list contains notes about known limitations when using certain combinations of DAQ cables and accessories. If your device or cable is not listed in this section, there are no known exceptions for it.
Devices/Modules:
| Model | Note |
|---|---|
| PCI-6624 PXI-6624 | To enable connection on all lines of the 6624 with the R1005050 cable, you must connect to two 50-pin connector blocks. The CB-100 kit contains two CB-50 connector blocks and a R1005050 cable. |
