Is the PXIe-5622 digitizer really unsupported by the LabView Real-Time OS?

Hello,

  We need to sample a 60 MHz signal with 15 MHz of bandwidth, for durations of up to eight hours, and were considering the PXIe-5622 board.  Given the high PRF we need (6.4 kHz), we want a Real Time OS deployment. However, it seems that this board (and none of the other RF boards) are not supported by the RT Embedded Controller, but require the dreaded Windows for control.  Is this actually true?

Cheers.

Hey smudog,

The PXIe-5622 is actually supported on real-time. The NI-SCOPE driver picked up support for RT with version 3.5 and the NI-RFSA driver picked up support with version 2.08 (latest version is 2.1). I attached links to the drivers and you can click the link to the readme's to see confirmation.
