using LABVIEW with DT2805 board

[PRN]

I wish to use LABVIEW 7 to control solenoid valves using DT2805 board. but LABVIEW does not recognize the board. What should be done so that LABVIEW can 'see' DT2805 board and send instructions to operate it. I currnetly use QBASIC program to send out the instructions to DT2805.

Contact the manufacturer of the board (Data Translation?) and see if they have LabVIEW drivers for it. LabVIEW only comes with drivers for NI boards. If your QBASIC program is calling a DLL provided by the manufacturer, then you can do the same thing in LabVIEW with the Call Library Function Node.

You will need DT-LV Link from DataTranslation. But it is not free.
