Hello,

Unfortunately I was unable to find a driver for this instrument. This leaves you with one of a couple options. First, I would like you to submit a request for this driver at:
http://www.ni.com/devzone/idnet/other.htm
We develop drivers in CVI and LabVIEW based on demand and popularity so the more requests we have for it, the greater the possibility that we will develop one. While this would not provide you with a QBASIC program, you may be able to create a DLL that you could call from QBASIC.

If you would like to try developing your own instrument driver (or modify the existing one), we have documentation, model instrument drivers, and driver templates to help at :
http://www.ni.com/devzone/idnet/development.htm

We also have a syndica
te of third party vendors that specialize in National Instruments' products and services. Some of the vendors specialize in driver development. I would suggest contacting one of the Alliance members at:

Good Luck,
