I know what you want to do, I just don't know how because you haven't answered the question about how the vendor has implemented the USB interface. Unless someone who has used this posts and answer, you probably know more than anyone here. You presumably have the manual at least. I went to the vendor's web site and could find no useful information. There is no 'generic' solution to USB as I have already mentioned. If there is nothing in the manual, you will need to contact the vendor and ask how to interface to their hardware with a different program than what ships with it. You don't even need to mention LabVIEW. Any example, in any programming language will be a start.

You would need to use one of the two API products that Tekscan sells.
API-1 allows a program you write to get the digital output directly from the Handles (without going through the BPMS software at all). API-2 allows a program you write to get the (equilibrated and calibrated) data from the BPMS software. There is a DLL that make data from API-2 available to Labview.
I have attached manuals for these products.
