DAQ under Linux

[HMay]

Hello

We are currently using around 20 years old NI multi functional i/o PCI devices. For some of those cards we are using Debian based comedi c programs for maximizing system control etc. Now we are slowly confronted with the need to update our inventory with newer PCIe cards. My understanding is, that the NI-DAQmx driver for Linux provides similar functionality as comedi, meaning I could write stand alone programs in C/C++/Python. Is that correct? Such a program would not be connected to LabView in any way, right?

Thank you very much

Hello HMay. Why don't you want to use LabVIEW? If you want to program with the text-based language, you should use LabWindows/CVI.

Thanks for your answer.
I just prefer using text based programming languages.

You can use other programming languages too.
