Can VISA and DAQ driver work simultaneously?

    I can program digital I/O with VISA driver(generated by VISA driver development wizard ),using ibus. But in Max , it can’t find Daq device. I update driver ,using daq7.3, my program can’t work. I trace the error, the VISA function “viFindRsrc” doesn’t return the correct PXI device number. I want use VISA driver to operate serial DIO, at the same time , use Daq driver to acquire data. Is it feasible? Can the E series pci devices work under two drivers ( using VISA and Using DAQ )simultaneously?

You can use the MHDDK and NI-DAQ on the same device, but you should only have one inf pointing to them.  If you have NI-DAQmx installed, NI-VISA will be able to find any of the NI devices in your system.  Just go to MAX  Tools Menu >> NI-VISA >> VISA Option ...  Check the box for "Show all devices accessible to VISA."  You can then remove the inf you created with the Wizard.
