traditional daq AI hardware config.vi to daqmx

[shilpawalia]

I was working with PCI 6023 card using DAQ in LabVIEW6. Now, when I upgraded the card to PCIe 6321 card, it requires DAQmx for LabVIEW16. I am able to upgrade program from DAQ to DAQmx as DAQ does not support new card of PCI. There is one subvi i.e. AI hardware config.vi of DAQ which I am not able to upgrade to DAQmx.

Hi.

 I cannot find replacement of AI Hardware Config. vi of DAQ in DAQmx.

Please help me @contact: swalia316@yahoo.com

Hi Shilpawalia,

There may not be a direct replacement of the AI Hardware Config.vi in DAQmx. Check out the link below about transitioning from NI-DAQ to DAQmx.

Hi

  I got idea about every VI replacement of DAQ in DAQmX but did not get anything related with AI HARDWARE CONFIG.VI.

It's been a lot of years since I used the old "traditional NI-DAQ" driver (and even more since I wanted to).  So I'm going by untrustworthy memory here.  That said, here goes.

"DAQmx Create Virtual Channel" - covers some of the things formerly set up in "Group Config" and "Hardware Config".   You can define things like channels, voltage ranges, terminal config there.

What other kinds of inputs fed into "AI Hardware Config" that you haven't been able to accomplish in DAQmx?  Have you explored the DAQmx property nodes for these things?

I have got lvdaq.dll of DAQ which support all DAQ subVIs including AI hardware config. But if I run VI in 64bit PC, it does not support for the DAQ.  

I need to upgrade DAQ to DAQmx. Does DAQmx have any .dll supporting file.

NI-DAQ was deprecated when 32bit OS was still "state of the art". It will not run on an 64bit OS…

Yes, DAQmx also relies on DLLs.

But you don't need to care about them as long as you use all those DAQmx functions!

Did you read the answers you already got in this thread?

What about message #5 by Kevin Price?
