SCXI-1000 Compatability

[hecmar.arreola]

Greetings,

I am trying to use the SCXI-1000 with LabVIEW. Since this hardware is discontinued, it is not compatible with newer versions of LabVIEW and NI-MAX. I was wondering what versions of NI-MAX, LabView and DAQmx Base should I use. 

I need to make a simple data logging program to save and display data for strain gages. I am currently trying to use LabVIEW 2009, with NI-MAX 5.6, but i cant find a DAQmx Base download previous to 14.0. Therefore, in LabView, I don't get the Data Acquisition palette that I need.

Is there better software to use? Is there somewhere else I can find this version of DAQmx?

Thank you!

This article lists the version required for SCXI-1000

Edit:

As per this article DAQmx 19.0 and earlier supports SCXI devices. https://knowledge.ni.com/KnowledgeArticleDetails?id=kA03q000001Dm21CAC&l=en-US

DAQmx 19.0 readme states that it supports SCXI-1000/DC model - https://www.ni.com/pdf/manuals/374768ab.html#SCXIChassis

Can someone tell me why my SCXI boards are not showing up in the configuration on NI MAX?  I have kept Daqmx at 18.5, but NI MAX still does not recognize that I have SCXI modules connected to my system.

Please excuse my posting here.  I couldn't find where to start a new topic.
