NI 9215 Handheld C

[jadlaxel]

Hi!

I got NI 9215 in order to use it with a handheld (PDA) under windows CE, windows mobile 5.0 or windows mobile 6.0 and using C, C++ or C#. I do not need to do any fancy but just record the readings from one sensor. Any ideas how I can program this? Is there a dll I can use?

Thanks in advance,

Axel.

Hi Axel,

To use any of the supported NI data acquisition devices on a PDA under Windows CE, Windows Mobile 5.0, or Windows Mobile 6.0, you will need to install the DAQmx Base driver. In order to acquire and log the data from your sensor, you will need to have the LabVIEW Mobile Module 8.6.  Unfortunately, the ANSI C API for DAQmx Base is only supported on Windows Desktop, so you would not be able to program your device in C and run the applications on your PDA. Additionally, in the DAQmx Base 3.2 readme, the USB-9215A is listed as a supported device, and not the USB-9215. Do you have the USB-9215A?
