Driver for USB 1608 G

Hi everyone,

 

I'm new on Labview and I want to acquire data from a usb 1608G from Measurement Computing. I can acquire data thanks to the ULx for NI Labview Library included in the usb 1608 G but I would like to use the Measurement & Automation Explorer...

 

Unfortunately, it does'nt recognize the usb port... Is it because the usb 1608G is not a NI instrument? Is it because I don't have the correct driver?

 

Thanks for your answers,

Hello,

 

If you have LabVIEW drivers for your usb device, why you want to use MAX for this?

 

If you want to communicate using MAX, your device should fall in either USBTMC Class or RAW Class. Starting with version 3.0, NI-VISA supports USB communication for two classes of VISA resources USB INSTR (Test and Measurement Class) and USB RAW (class).

 

More information will be available in http://www.ni.com/white-paper/4478/en/
