Does anyone have a labview driver for a IOtech digital i/o interface Typ: Digital488/80A??

Hello,

I did a quick search on the web for "digital488 labview" (without the quotes) and found a few hits, all of them being on the IOTech website. You may want to contact them and see if they have a LabVIEW driver for your device. If they do not, you can find some resource for developing your own driver at www.ni.com/idnet.

I hope one of these suggestions helps you. Good luck, and have a pleasant day.

If you can't find the driver you may want to look at some of the digital I/O boards, if what you're looking for is TTL lines. Here's one I found for under 400: http://sine.ni.com/apps/we/nioc.vp?lang=US&pc=mn&cid=3591

To find all digital boards:

With this approach, since you're not using GPIB but using the PCI bus on the PC you should get better data transfer throuput as well. This really depends on your application needs on weather it's an issue or not ... and you'll have the LabVIEW VIs that come with the NI-DAQ driver.

Best of luck,
