Missing DAQmx Resources

After recently upgrading my NI-MAX from version 7 to version 9.7.5 whenever I try to access any of my projects that require accesss to DAQ they are unable to find the required libraries, even after searching the install directory for any of the required LLBs or vis they do not seem to have been included in the install location. As a significant number of my projects require the use of DAQ to work proerly this is quite an issue, so if someone could help it would be much appreciated. I'm fairly certain that this is probably a minor error on my behalf or an issue with the location that the projects are being pointed to but after reinstalling and searching I have found no obvious solutions.

There is no version of LabVIEW that is compatible with DAQmx 7 and 9.7.5 I'm guessing you have a version of LabVIEW that's too old. Upgrade your LabVIEW or uninstall DAQmx.

Was using an old version but recently upgraded to 2012/2013, projects were handed to me from someone else, both labview 2012 SP1 and Labview 2013 the same response, no DAQ controls present in either of them, even when starting a new project I can't Quickdrop any DAQ vis.

Aside from trying the latest version, I'm not sure what else you can do.

Yes, DAQ is replaced by DAQmx so you wont find those functions easily. Or are you missing DAQmx also?

Check Max

Do you have this palette?

If you do, daqmx is installed. Check this link for migrating from traditional daq to daqmx http://www.ni.com/white-paper/4342/en/

No, you didn't upgrade MAX. You upgraded drivers which just happened to install a new version of MAX.

 

Were your older programs using NI-DAQ or DAQmx.  There is a major difference, especially since NI-DAQ (now called Traditional DAQ) is no long supported or even shipped.

Yes, there is no DAQ or DAQmx present in either of the versions of labview.

 


Check Max

DAQmx seems to be present in MAX

No, I don't have that palette which I believe to be the exact problem. But I can't figure out how to get it.

The program is using DAQmx as the missing folder first listed is DAQmx Write (Digital Bool 1Line 1Point).vi.
