is it possible to use Daqmx with compact-rio to acquire AI signal using modules 9215 and save the data to disk

Hi just wondering if is it possible to use Daqmx software to acquire analog signal using module 9215 with compactrio device (9022)

thanks

No, DAQmx is not used on a CompactRIO.  For the CompactRIO, you will either need to write FPGA code or use Scan Engine.

Hi wgkotb.

No, as Chris says, DAQmx cannot be used with cRIO products. For this, you need the NI-RIO driver and the following modules:

- LabVIEW Real-Time

- LabVIEW FPGA (optional)

NI has a "Getting Started"-guide for cRIO, which will help you setting up your device and program some examples, to make sure you will be successful in your use of cRIO.

Once you get familiar with this way of doing data acquisition, you will see that the cRIO products are truly powerful 🙂

Thanks for all

If you would like to use DAQmx and have form factor very similar to that of CompactRIO, you might also look at Stand-Alone NI CompactDAQ.
