Daqpad 1200 access

Hi,

I have a DAQPad-1200 attached to the parallel port of a 700mhz, Win98
machine, but Labview 6i doesn't see it as a daq device (the parallel port is
recognized as a visa device). How do I configure it so that I can read the
analog input channels? I'm trying to get it to read voltage levels from a
transducer.

Thanks

http://www.ni.com/support/daq/parallel/default.htm . Basically, NI s/w
doesn't support ECP mode.

Also, if the DAQPad-1200 loses power, restore its power & reboot the PC.
Otherwise the Test Resources option in MAX says "The device is no longer
responding to the selected base address". LV gives no error but no data
either.
