driver for usb-6221 XP LAbview 6.0.2

Solved!
Go to solution

I am trying to connect usb-6221 to an old laptop with XP and Labview 6.0.2. I have been told this is not possible with NI-DAQmx. This old version of Labview does not use NI-DAQmx, it has NI-DAQ 6.8 installed. The Read me for this suggests it works with USB, but I cannot find any USB drivers in the installation.

Building on the answer to your post here, the only USB devices supported in NI-DAQ 6.8 are the old DAQPad E Series USB devices such as the NI DAQPad-6015 or DAQPad-6016.  All M Series devices, including the USB variants, are only supported in NI-DAQmx.
