6013 programming using VC++ 6.0 without measurement studio

[mlkarle]

Hi,
Is there any way to program NI 6013 card using VC++ wihtout Measurement studio. I have installed DAQ 7.1. I tried using NI-Visa programming . But i was unable to access 6013 card. Is there any other way to access 6013 card using DAQ and VC++?

With regards,
Manish

Hi Manish!
I haven't used your combination of hardware and software, but you should be able to import
nicaiu.dll and nidaqmx.h into VC++ and pick it up from there.
This will only work if your card supports NI-DAQmx, which I think it does.
If not, then an import of another dll/h combination might be successful.

Good luck!

Hi Manish,

NI-VISA programming will not work to communicate with your DAQ board. VISA is usually used to communicate with an instrument over some sort of bus like GPIB, serial, USB, etc.

Jens was absolutley correct about the board being supported in DAQmx and being able to program it using VC++. Along with Jens advice, I think you will find the following links very useful:
