Talking to NI 6527 DIO - NI MAX and NI DAQ neded?

Solved!
Go to solution

Hello,

 

i want to use a NI 6527 card and read Digital inputs in my C# program.

With other instruments connected via LAN i can open a port and send SCPI comands over socket connection.

 

Is this with the 6527 also possible or do i need in each case the installation of NI MAX and NI DAQ?

Is accessing the hardware only possible with the NI DAQ driver and the configuration in NI MAX?

 

Or is there an other way available where i dont have to install addidtional software?

 

Thanks for help

Yes, you need the respective NI device driver and NI MAX for it to be used. Low-level register control is required to control NI's instruments and is not comparable to the bench instruments that may have an application processor that translates the SCPI into low-level register commands.
