Hi,

I want to know that AO update (Mesurment and IO) VI work with NI DAQpad 6016?

Thank you

Hi,

I vaguely remember reading that NI DAQpad 6016 supports only DAQmx device drivers and not Traditional DAQ

If this is right, than you cannot use AO update ( its a Traditional DAQ ) function with this Hardware.

Hope this helps

Do check if  Traditional DAQ support exists for your Device or not.

If You have installed both DAQmx and traditional DAQ on your system, and if this device has traditional DAQ support, it should under Traditional DAQ devices in Devices and interfaces.

If it does not show up there,  it is not supported by traditional DAQ.

Hi Neel,

devchander is right in his assumption.  The VI that you are trying to use is a Traditional DAQ VI, so you cannot use it with devices that are only supported in DAQmx.

If you look at this page, you will see that your DAQPad-6016 is only supported in DAQmx.

You can still find plenty of help in getting you started with simply updating a single AO point.

The easiest way would be to Open a New VI, and then place a DAQ Assistant (Functions > Express > Input > DAQ Assistant) on the block diagram.  This will then ask you some simple configuration questions about what you want your measurement to be like.  When you are finished setting it all up, then simply click 'OK' and you will now have a working program that updates your Analog Output Voltage. 

You can then do the same thing for the various Analog Inputs that you wish to have.

I hope this helps, let us know if you run into any other problems.

Regards,
