New features and changes introduced is this version are:
You can use these blocks to acquire analog or digital data in a Simulink model, or to output analog or digital data from the model to a hardware device. The toolbox block library contains four blocks:
Analog Input — Acquire data from multiple channels of an analog data acquisition device.
Analog Output — Output data to multiple channels of an analog data acquisition device.
Digital Input — Acquire the latest set of values from multiple lines of a digital data acquisition device.
Digital Output — Output data to multiple lines of a digital data acquisition device.
Additional data acquisition hardware support was added, as follows:
Support added for four additional National Instruments (NI) data acquisition devices — NI USB-6251 (USB); NI USB-6259 (USB); NI PCIe-6251 (PCI Express); and NI PCIe-6259 (PCI Express).
Support added for an additional Measurement Computing Corporation (MCC) data acquisition device — MCC USB-1408FS (USB).

Analog input objects have a number of acceptable values for their InputType property: NonReferencedSingleEnded, SingleEnded, Differential, and Pseudodifferential. In the initial release of the NI-DAQmx adaptor in Version 2.8 (R14SP3+), Pseudodifferential was incorrectly spelled as Psuedodifferential. The toolbox change now correctly spells this input type as Pseudodifferential.
This change is backward compatible; users that saved analog input objects with the InputType property set to the misspelled Psuedodifferential will be able to load the object in R2006b and later with no changes on their part. The compatibility issue is that if you save an analog input object with this InputType value in R2006b, you will not be able to share it with users of R2006a and earlier versions. Analog input objects that have their InputType set to Pseudodifferential will be unusable in R2006a and previous releases. Analog input objects that use the other InputType values are unaffected.
Obsolescence Process. If you use the set function to assign the incorrectly spelled value Psuedodifferential, in Version 2.9 (R2006b), you will get a warning and it will be changed to the correct spelling. In the following release of the toolbox, you will get an error advising you to use the new spelling. The get function will always return the correctly spelled value.
