Can't fin the DAQ assistant in LabView

Solved!
Go to solution

 

Hi, 

I just bought the NI DAQ USB 6003 and I'm trying use it. I installed Ni-DAQmx 17.6 and I tested the DAQ with MAX.  It worked perfectly.

 

But when I tried to create a new VI to try to measure a voltage, I couldn't find the DAQ assistant in the functions palet (below Measurements or Express). I tried to uninstall DAQmx, to fix the installation and to fix LabView but nothing seems to work...

 

Anyone got an idea how to fix this?

 

PS: I'm working with LabView 2017

Hi Robin,

 

why do you need such an ExpressVI when the plain DAQmx functions are easy to use?

Are those plain functions available?

If yes: use them. (There still might be a problem with your ExpressVI installation.)

If not: there is a problem with your DAQmx installation. Correct it…

 

Best regards,
GerdW

Hi Robin,

 

the hard way:

- deinstall anything related to NI

- run the setup routine to install LabVIEW (I prefer 32bit), followed by DAQmx

That should do it…
