Appendix
For your convenience, this appendix contains forms to help you gather the information necessary to
help us solve technical problems and a form you can use to comment on the product documentation.
When you contact us, we need the information on the Technical Support Form and the configuration
form, if your manual contains one, about your system configuration to answer your questions as
quickly as possible.
National Instruments has technical assistance through electronic, fax, and telephone systems to
quickly provide the information you need. Our electronic services include a bulletin board service,
an FTP site, a Fax-on-Demand system, and e-mail support. If you have a hardware or software
problem, first try the electronic support systems. If the information available on these systems does
not answer your questions, we offer fax and telephone support through our technical support
centers, which are staffed by application engineers.
