Any information regarding support for USB-6000 series (Specifically USB-6001) on the NI Linux Driver

‎02-01-2022 05:36 AM

Hi, I have a USB-6001 DAQ, which I need to use for a project, but we only have a Linux with Ubuntu 20.01 machine available for us. I know NI delivered ni-daqmx 21.3 which supports Ubuntu 20.01 last year, but the USB-6000 series are not part of their supported devices, according to this list:
NI-DAQmx for Linux/x86 64-bit Readme, Version 21.3 - National Instruments

Do anyone have a work around, or something else that can be done? Or is this just an impossible task at the moment?

BR Andreas.

I have seen a few such discussions in the forum, all turned out that there is no DAQmx support for Linux for the low-cost DAQ models. Looks like either get a better DAQ or use Windows/Mac.
