I cannot find the appropriate driver for the Omega Personal DAQ 3000 data acquisition system (model OMB-DAQ-3000) in labVIEW 8.6 . I have installed the LabVIEW driver off of the Omega cd, and updated the labview driver at ftp://ftp.omega.com/public/DASGroup/products/OMB-DAQ-3000/. However, I when I went to bring this driver into LabVIEW, I went tools->instrumentation->find instrument drivers-> From there I found the only NI certified driver to be omhctb3k, and I installed the driver version of this for LabView 8.0. When I then went to put this driver and associated instruments into my vi, it shows up only as a thermoregulator, and is only allowing me to use it for temperature applications. I need to use this data acquisition system for pressure and displacement measurements, and am running on Windows 7. Any insight on how I can find the appropriate driver and get it to work with LabVIEW would be much appreciated. Also, if I have not posted this in the most appropriate forum, please suggest one that will be of more help. Thanks!

Thanks Allie, this worked with the modification that I chose "link to an existing palette file (.mnu) rather than "link to a directory". Thanks to you and the NI staff that helped me through this!

Omega Personal DAQ 3000 driver installation w/LabVIEW 8.6

Solved!

Hola Armando88,

Mi recomendación sería que intentara contactar directamente a Omega, ya que el driver OMB-DAQ-3001 no es soportado por National Instruments, por lo que no tenemos referencias de problemas con dichos ejemplos.

Saludos,

Carolina
