Why is LabVIEW 2012 not supporting USB 6009?

[devkotaj]

Hi All,

I have recently installed LabVIEW 2012 and DAQmx 9.6 (and tried with higher version also) in my PC with Windows 7. I have  measurement and automation explorer 5.4 version. I am trying to work with USB 6009 DAQ device. Everything looks compatible but when I try for self test of the DAQ, it fails. However, I used to use this device (since I purchased it last year) with other PC which has WindowsXP operating system and old version of LabVIEW 8.5.

All I can see with LabVIEW 2012 is a message "An error -88302 occured." and "This might be internal error."

If anyone has some idea to fix the problem, please let me know.

Hi devkotaj,

The USB 6009 device should run fine on Windows 7 with the software you listed. This sounds like a hardware configuraiton issue to me.

What are you trying to do when you receive error -88302? This error usually indicates a corrupt DAQmx driver, which can result from installing multiple versions of DAQmx on the same machine. Have you tried repairing your DAQmx installation? I might uninstall DAQmx from the control panel before attempting to install the latest driver. You can look at our recommenedd reinstall/uninstall procedure here. 

I hope this helps!
