Hi,
I am trying to control a USB-6525 using Python. I have downloaded and installed the latest version of NI-MAX. I also installed PyDAQmx. However, it seems that there is a dependency that is probably not installed since I have minimal NI Hardware / Software installed in my machine.
The error I get: " Location of niDAQmx library and include file unknown on win32 - if you find out, please let the PyDAQmx project know"
I serched and the error is generated because there niDAQmx.h file is not present. I found the following post: http://digital.ni.com/public.nsf/allkb/FB26BDA52FFFD4EE86257124005C36C3?OpenDocument
However, there I cannot find an installation to install this examples. Is there a location or an installation I can use to install those examples?

What do you mean you downloaded latest NI MAX version?

I would suggest you downloading DAQmx lastest version in case you don't have it yet:

Hi,
Posting this in case it can help somebody with a similar issue.
I had downloaded the latest version of NI-DAQmx. However, after speaking with an NI support engineer. It seems that that was the installer for only runtime version.
I was pointed to the NI-DAQmx installer for development. Once that installation happen. PyDAQmx runs quite well.
Thanks,
Rafael

Hello.
I have searched for solutions where I can operate the USB-6525 with python. I guess I should need some kind of DLL-library. I was very surprised when the only thing is drivers at 1.8 Gb! Then is is not even obvious what I should install. Is there any easy to use DLL-library?
Kind regards
/Björn
