NI MAX installation in Ubantu

Hi,

 

 

I need to install measurement and automation explorer for ubantu. I downloaded the NI MAX and installed. However when I am trying to access the nidaqmx from python i got the error like:-

 

libnipalu.so failed to initialize
Verify that nipalk.ko is built and loaded.

 

 

Thanks

NI Max is Windows only. You will need to install NI-VISA and/or NI-DAQmx for Linux. That comes with the necessary kernel drivers for the NI hardware and the nidaqconfigure utility that replaces NI Max on non-Windows systems.
