how to program USB-6009 with visual C++ - Intro

[saamooraaii]

Hi there.

Can anyone give me some hints on how to start coding for USB-6009 in Visual Studio C++?

is it even feasible OR should I use the .NET version?

Thanks very much for any help.

Hello saamooraaii,

There are a couple of resources that should already be on your system that you can use. Once you have installed NI-DAQmx you will also have the DAQmx C Reference Help, found under Start»All Programs»National Instruments»NI-DAQ»NI-DAQmx C Reference Help. This document has a comprehensive listing of all available DAQmx C function calls. Another resource would be the examples found on your computer under NI-DAQ\Examples\VisualC. There are several examples in this directory that should help to get you started.

For more information on getting started with NI-DAQmx in a text-based environment you should check out KnowledgeBase 18G6G34S: How do you Compile and Run NI-DAQ Examples with Microsoft Visual Studio?
