Installing PCI-6036E DAQmx card

Hello,

 

I am trying to install a DAQ PCI-6036E. I can see the card in 'Measurement & Automation Explorer', but it doesn't appear in the 'Connected Instruments' folder in the 'Find Instrument Drivers' window.

 

I have tried to install the driver available at: http://www.ni.com/download/ni-daqmx-9.5.1/2933/en/ but got an error message saying it wqas not compatible with my operating system. I am using Windows 7 64-bit, which is listed as compatible on the driver link above.

 

I am assuming the lack of driver is why, when I self-calibrate in Labview, I get the following error message: 

 

The device could not be calibrated.
-200329
An error has occurred while attempting to configure the device for an analog input acquisition.

If an external master timebase is being used, make sure the source is connected and generating an appropriate clock. Otherwise, contact National Instruments Technical Support.

 

I am quite new to labview and using these cards so any help would be very much appreciated.

 

Thanks in advance.

Trying to find it as a third party instrument is not at all correct. If it's listed in MAX, then the driver is installed and you should be able to use DAQmx functions or the DAQ Assistant.
