Reading from a USB DAQ wirelessly

[JoeKellyATI]

Hello all,

I'm pretty sure I know the answer to this, but I wanted to make sure.

I'm using two USB DAQ's: USB-6255 and USB-6002

I want to know if it's possible to access them wirelessly (short range is OK).  I'm only polling them at 1 Hz.

I'm hoping bluetooth or WiFi.

Thanks,

Joe

Hi Joe,

With the USB-6255 or USB-6002 you will not be able be able to access them over a wireless network because neither of them have any way of being addressed by a network. 

That being said, NI does offer wireless solutions that should be able to achieve most of the same functionality of your USB devices with the additional function of being wireless. I have included the link below to our wireless devices so that you can take a look at our options.

OK, so I guess I can't add some kind of wireless USB adapter of some kind and access it that way?  Just wondering if anyone has tried to "McGyver" there way to wireless readings.

Thanks,

Joe
