Where to download instruments drivers?

I need the instrument driver described in this link:

http://sine.ni.com/apps/utf8/niid_web_display.download_page?p_id_guid=E3B19B3E950B659CE034080020E748...

but I can't find the download button. Any help?

Hi Maggots,

 

I believe these are just the regular NI Scope drivers that we offer for free on our website. You can find them at ni.com/drivers. The latest such driver is actually 3.8.7 which can be found here: http://joule.ni.com/nidu/cds/view/p/id/2681/lang/en . Did you specifically need version 3.6?

 

Regards,

All right, I installed it but then shouldn't I have access to ni-scope functions in LabView? (Express > Input > Instruments Driver) I think I should have at least an initialize function. I do not undersand.

maggotsBrain,

 

You may have downloaded the incorrect version of NI SCOPE for your version of LabVIEW. I would double check the compatibility between the two. The NI Scope drivers should be in that location, but it is also in Measurement I/O -> NI - SCOPE. You may have to repair or reinstall the drivers.

I can't be using an inappropriate version of NI-SCOPE as it was sent on a CD with my device.

I'll try the path you recommend tomorrow.

What is surprising with this is that the NI-SCOPE soft front panel seems to work well.

Hi Maggots

 

What version of LabVIEW are you using and what version of NI Scope is bundled on that CD?

Hi maggotsBrain,

 

I have the same thing installed, and this is what I see.  Can you confirm you do not see this?

Lucky you! I'll try to reinstall the driver.
