Overview

Product overview

Key product information and technical features.

The PCI-SERVO-4A belongs to NI's PCI-SERVO controller range. NI's archived support material places this range within the ValueMotion hardware and software ecosystem.

ValueMotion and NI-Motion are distinct software considerations. NI's NI-Motion 6.0 release documentation states that it does not contain ValueMotion; the NI-Motion 6.1 release documentation also warns that it cannot be installed side by side with ValueMotion.
