Are all sensors compatible with LabVIEW and DAQ assisstant or are there any specifications ?

Sensors have nothing to do with LabVIEW or the DAQ assistant.
The question is whether you have a DAQ device that is cabable of reading your sensor.

As Ravensfan points out, the burden is on the daq.
From my experience, some sensors require differential inputs on the daq(ie- many single pwr supply sensors) Also, want the sensor output to be within range of daq. (some daqs limited on neg side) Lastly, you want 2 be sure that daq can read beyond the normal range of the sensor so you can detect an overrange condition.
good luck

This is the general idea.
My guess is you're asking about DAQ Devices in general. LabVIEW and MAX are great at working with a wide range of devices, though NI equipment is obviously the easiest.

How to calibrate MQ-3 sensor using LabVIEW 14.0 ?

Hi aishu,
such a question should be answered in the calibration manual of the sensor manufacturer!
If the manufacturer of this (cheap) sensor doesn't provide any calibration data/manual you could look for similar (but better) gas sensors and read their calibration manual. Then apply your new knowledge to your sensor…
Hint: to calibrate gas sensors you need gas compositions with known content…
