Software support for USB6215

[jmarzouk]

Are there some features that a more recent version of labview (more recent that 7.1) would support on my newly purchased NI USB6215?  Are there some functions I cannot perform on the USB6215 with labview 7.1?

THANKS!

Hi Jerry,

There are a few features that would be supported in LabVIEW 8.x that are not available in LabVIEW 7.1. 

One is using a shared variable to publish your data over the network.  You can see if this is a feature you are interested in by reading the tutorial OPC for Data Acquisition for NI-DAQmx 8.

The other feature that will be unavailable is NI-DAQmx Events for analog input and analog output operations.  There are examples available in LabVIEW 8.x for these operations that are not available in LabVIEW 7.1. 

Please let us know if you have additional questions.

Regards,
Laura
