how to communicate with DT 9814

[dutchboypower]

Hello all,

I am very new to Labview. Company will not pay for training.

I am trying to communicate with a Data Translation DT 9814.

Labview see the device and M/I says that it works correctly.

Do I use a UDP or a VISA to open the devise. I have tried to use the DAQ menu but it will not communicate.

Sorry if it sounds stupid.

I have attached a vi that I made. I am sure many mistakes.

Please feel free to make changes.

Thanks,

You should look at their free download LV-Link.

Hi,

You will either have to write your own custom DLLs or, as previously stated, download LV-Link 3.0 fromt he manufactururs website.  These are pretty much doing the same thing for this device that DAQmx does for NI devices.

Hi,

Looks like something messed up with the install.  I would try running the installer for the drivers again.

Gregg,

Should I un install the DT9814 software all together.

George,

I would try running the installer again with your system as is and see if it missed something the first time.

Greg,

I just did. No change.

I was told that the DLL would be in the locations but they are not only the DIL's are.

Ok,

Found the DLL's oldaapi32 and olmem32 where do they need to be.

Presently they are in System32.

Does labview require them to be in a different location.

George,

These dlls are associated with the third party drivers you downloaded.  You will have to check the VIs and see where they reference the dlls from.
