Looking for third party driver for Bentley Nevada 208P data acquisition unit.

We have a Bentley Nevada 208P data acquisition unit used with their Adre system (software/hardware). We would find it benifitial to utilize it on another application other than monitoring proximitors, and do some calculations on the voltage signals received outside Bentley's Adre system software. We are using LabView on other applications. Has anyone tried this?

From what I can find about this instrument it looks as though it communicates via Parallel port. I don't think NI has anything which is specific to this instrument, but if Bentley Nevada publishes the command set/communication specs you could probably use VISA to communicate with it (unfortunately they won't allow access to their manuals online without a password so I can't find out anything more specific).

Best of luck,
