Is there DAQ driver for MAC or Linux

[alex.]

I know for Labview there is version for Mac or Linux.

Just want to learn if there is DAQ driver for MAC or Linux, which can support USB DAQ.

Thanks.

Alex,

I do not know about Linux but DAQmx Base is available for the Mac.  You would need to check the documentation to see which devices are supported. Some are while others are not.

Hi Alex,

Lynn is correct. For using NI's USB DAQ hardware with Mac and Linux, the best and only driver to use is NI-DAQmx Base. The readme file lists what specific devices are supported, which specific Linux and OS X versions are supported, and which hardware features are supported.
