Access PXI 6132 though the NI-SCOPE

[gremlm]

Is it possible to access PXI 6132 though the NI-SCOPE as IviScope device?

We are forced to use .Net API (no UI), and we are working with two PXI instruments:

PXI 6132 and PXI 5114. The PXI 6132 can be accessible in .NET through the DAQmx directly.

The 5114 is accessible trough the NI SCOPE wrapper file (niscope.cs), and thus, it is accessible as  IviScope 3.0 device.

Can we some how configure MAX for working with PXI 6132 through the same wrapper file (niscope.cs)?

In this case we can use the same functionality for both instruments!

We are interested only in data acquisition.

If such approach is possible, what functionality of the PXI 6132 won't be available?

Thanks,

Hi gremlm,

Thanks for posting. Unfortunately, the NI-Scope driver will only be able to control NI's digitizer products. To find out which devices can be used with the NI-Scope driver, you can find the version of NI-Scope you have installed from www.ni.com/drivers and look at the readme file. You will need to create separate code using the NI-DAQmx driver to control your Multifunction DAQ card. I hope this helps!
