Hello Sara,

 

Unfortunately NI-DAQmx Base does not support NI-6255 devices.

In this case, I suggest either use NI-DAQMX on a Windows PC or use the Measurement Hardware Driver Development Kit (MHDDK).

Please give the followed post a try if you are interested in this in this workaround:

Best,

I just went through the same exercise for my NI-6220 card on Ubuntu 17.10.

It is really surprising that NI stopped releasing NI-DAQ for the latest Linux distributions. However, the open source package called comedi worked. The driver is still in the dog house in the kernel code (in the staging area) so I had to add it manually to my Yocto build. But the library - libcomedi-dev - is in the standard debian distribution.
