The Readme contains the following main sections:
NI-DAQ 7.x and Later Software
This section provides an overview of NI-DAQmx and Traditional
NI-DAQ (Legacy). National Instruments measurement devices are packaged with
NI-DAQ driver software, an extensive library of VIs and ANSI C
functions you can call from your application software, such as LabVIEW or
LabWindows™/CVI™, to program your NI measurement devices.
Measurement devices include DAQ devices such as the M Series multifunction I/O
(MIO) devices, signal conditioning modules, and switch modules. Driver software
has an application programming interface (API ), which is a library of
VIs, functions, classes, attributes, and properties for creating applications
for your device.
NI-DAQ 7.x and later includes two NI-DAQ drivers,
NI-DAQmx and Traditional NI-DAQ (Legacy), each with its own APIs, hardware
configuration, and software configuration.
Choosing the API to Use
This section includes information on choosing the right API for
your device and application.
NI-DAQmx
NI-DAQmx is the latest NI-DAQ driver with new VIs and functions
and development tools for programming measurement devices. You should install
and use NI-DAQmx if you are using devices supported by NI-DAQmx; refer to Device Support. If you are using a TEDS sensor, you can
use only NI-DAQmx.
If you are using NI application software with NI-DAQmx, you must
use LabVIEW, LabWindows/CVI, or Measurement Studio version 7.x and
later, LabVIEW SignalExpress 2.x, or the LabVIEW Real-Time Module 7.1
or later.
To use Visual C# or Visual Basic.NET, you must use NI-DAQmx.
You can also use supported versions of
Visual Studio to create NI-DAQmx applications with Visual Basic 6.0 and ANSI
C.
Traditional NI-DAQ (Legacy)
Traditional NI-DAQ (Legacy) is an older driver with outdated
APIs for developing data acquisition, instrumentation, and control applications
for older National Instruments DAQ devices. Traditional NI-DAQ (Legacy) has the
same VIs and functions and works the same way as NI-DAQ 6.9.3, except you can
use Traditional NI-DAQ (Legacy) and NI-DAQmx on the same computer, and some
hardware and software is no longer supported.
You should use Traditional NI-DAQ (Legacy) only in
certain circumstances.
- You have a device that is not supported by NI-DAQmx, such as the AT E
Series multifunction DAQ devices; refer to Device
Support.
- You are using LabWindows/CVI or Measurement Studio version
6.x.
- You have existing NI-DAQ 6.9.x or Traditional NI-DAQ (Legacy)
applications that you cannot port to NI-DAQmx now. You can continue to use
applications developed in Traditional NI-DAQ (Legacy) that control older devices
in the same system with NI-DAQmx applications for newer devices. Refer to Using NI-DAQmx and Traditional NI-DAQ (Legacy) on the Same
Computer.
- You have an NI modular instrument device that requires Traditional NI-DAQ
(Legacy).

NI-DAQmx Known Issues
This section covers issues specific to NI-DAQmx.
Aborting Single-Point Reads and Writes in LabVIEW
Single-point reads and writes do not respond to the
Abort Execution button in LabVIEW.
Counter Behavior of the NI DAQPad-6015/6016 for USB
When performing buffered counter measurements on both ctr0 and
ctr1 simultaneously, ctr1 returns duplicate counts. If you do not use ctr0 or if
ctr0 performs a software-timed measurement, ctr1 functions properly.
DAQ Assistant Maximum Channel Count
The maximum number of channels you can have in a task created
with the DAQ Assistant is 512 channels.
DAQmx Is Read or Write Late Obsoleted
The existing DAQmx Is Read or Write Late function/VI has been
obsoleted and no longer has any effect. Applications that must check whether
they are maintaining real-time behavior have two options. For the strictest
checking, use the Wait for Next Sample Clock function/VI. Refer to your API
reference help, such as the LabVIEW Help or the NI-DAQmx C Function
Reference Help, for more information on this function/VI. To check only
whether the application misses any analog input samples, set the Report
Missed Samples property to True on the analog input task. In LabVIEW,
the Report Missed Samples property is in the Real Time property
node. For more details, National Instruments strongly recommends that you read
the document referred to by the Wait for Next Sample Clock function/VI.
Duplicate Count Prevention Defaults
The default setting for the duplicate count prevention
attribute/property on M Series and TIO-based counters has been changed. This
change affects all input counter operations, with the exception of single-point
edge counting and position measurements. Duplicate count prevention is now on
by default as long as the following conditions are met:
- The duplicate count prevention attribute/property has not been explicitly
set.
- The selected counter timebase source is not set to an internal
timebase.
- The prescaler attribute/property has not been set.
- The counter output event has not been configured.
To learn more, refer to Duplicate Count Prevention in
the NI-DAQmx help.
Existing .NET Project Produces Build Errors
If you are using NI-DAQ with a .NET language, an existing
project can produce build errors that read "error CS0011: Referenced class
'className' has base class or interface
'NationalInstruments.ISynchronizeCallbacks' defined in an assembly that is not
referenced. You must add a reference to assembly 'NationalInstruments.Common'."
To eliminate this error, add a reference to the NationalInstruments.Common
assembly to the project. This problem occurs when an existing project was built
with NI-DAQ 7.2 or earlier and is rebuilt with NI-DAQ 7.3 or later.
LabVIEW Long Property Names
When importing or exporting .ini
files and tab-delimited text, LabVIEW long property names are not supported.
Only English LabVIEW short property names, CVI property names, and C++/.NET
class.property names are supported.
Multichannel SCXI Convert Clock Default Rate Change in NI-DAQmx 8.5
Starting in NI-DAQmx 8.5, a delay of 20 µs was added to
the fastest possible channel conversion rate on an SCXI chassis connected to a
16-bit or 18-bit E or M Series device. If a sample rate is set fast enough to
require a convert clock rate greater than the default rate, warning 200011 is generated, informing the user that the
accuracy of the measurement might be compromised. However, since this is a
warning, the convert clock used is based on the rate needed by the sample
clock set by the user (that is, convert clock = sample clock * number of
channels).
For SCXI chassis containing a module with track-and-hold
circuitry, 10 µs of padding is now added to the fastest possible
conversion rate when connected to a 12-bit E Series device.
These changes ensure the most accurate data is being acquired.
However, if the effect on the performance due to this change
is too great (such as on an RT system using hardware-timed single point in a
control loop), then the convert clock rate attribute can be explicitly set,
overriding the default rate.
This change affects only multichannel acquisitions.
In versions prior to NI-DAQmx 8.5, only 10 µs of delay was
added
to the fastest possible channel conversion rate on an SCXI chassis without a
track-and-hold module connected to any DAQ device. In these versions of
NI-DAQmx, no warning was generated when the sample rate needed a
faster convert clock than was chosen by default. When an SCXI chassis with a
track-and-hold module was present, the convert clock rate selected was the
fastest possible rate that the DAQ device can handle, up to 333kHz.
.NET Remoting
Accessing objects in the DAQmx .NET class library from a remote
application domain with .NET Remoting is not supported in Microsoft Visual
Studio .NET 2003.
NI DAQCard-6715 Analog Output
Hardware-timed single-point mode and hardware-timed nonbuffered
mode are nonfunctional. Your application is using hardware-timed nonbuffered
mode if you have set up a sample clock and a buffer size of 0, or set up a
sample clock, but do not begin writing until after you start the task. All other
waveform and static analog output modes work as expected.
NI-DAQmx .NET Framework 1.1 Help Shortcut
A shortcut to the NI-DAQmx .NET Framework 1.1 Help is
installed by default at Start»All Programs»National
Instruments»NI-DAQ»NI-DAQmx .NET Framework 1.1 Help. This
documentation is in the Microsoft Help 2.0 format and requires a Microsoft Help
2.0 viewer to be displayed. A Microsoft Help 2.0 viewer is installed with both
Microsoft Visual Studio .NET and the Microsoft .NET Framework SDK. The SDK is
freely available from MSDN at http://www.microsoft.com/downloads
. If you do not have either of these products, you will need a standalone
Microsoft Help 2.0 viewer to display the documentation. Some Help 2.0 viewers
are available for download, such as Helpware's H2Viewer.
NI PCI-6704 and PXI-6704 Current Output Accuracy
NI-DAQmx 8.3 changes the algorithm used to scale the 20mA
current outputs of the NI 6704 to a method that matches the behavior of
Traditional NI-DAQ (Legacy). Previous versions of the NI-DAQmx driver use a
second method.
The effect of the change is that when NI-DAQmx programs the 6704
to output current, the actual current level of the 6704 is 10 µA higher
with
NI-DAQmx 8.3 compared to previous versions of NI-DAQmx. The actual current
output with NI-DAQmx 8.3 is the same compared to Traditional NI-DAQ
(Legacy) drivers. This change has no effect on the voltage outputs of the
6704.
Because of this change, NI recommends that you externally
calibrate NI 6704 devices with NI-DAQmx 8.3 (or later) before using devices with
the NI-DAQmx 8.3 (or later) driver. NI 6704 devices that ship with NI-DAQmx 8.3
have already been calibrated with NI-DAQmx 8.3. For other NI 6704 devices, refer
to the manual calibration procedure available at
ni.com/calibration.
NI PCI-7041/6040E Support
The NI PCI-7041/6040E device for LabVIEW RT is no longer
supported in NI-DAQmx 8.3 and will not be supported in future versions. The
device continues to be supported in NI-DAQmx 8.1 and earlier.
Resolving Compiler Warnings from SynchronizingObject in Visual Studio 2005
SynchronizingObject has been
obsoleted in Measurement Studio class libraries for .NET Framework 2.0.
Accessing this property produces compiler warnings. If you were using
SynchronizingObject in .NET Framework 1.1,
you must update your code to use SynchronizationContext in .NET Framework 2.0.
For more information about SynchronizationContext,
refer to Events, Callbacks, and Thread Safety in Measurement Studio Class
Libraries in the NI-DAQmx .NET Framework 2.0 help. The help can be launched
from Start»All Programs»National
Instruments»NI-DAQ».NET
Framework 2.0 Help.
Some Devices Enumerate Twice
Supported CompactRIO devices that fit into the NI USB-9162
carrier enumerate twice in MAX. When a device, such as the NI USB-9421, is first
installed, it appears as the NI USB-9162 before appearing as the correct
device.
Temperature Sensors and the Mass Termination USB-6251/6259
When configuring the SCB/SCC-68, the temperature sensor check
box is greyed out when the block is connected to either connector of a Mass
Termination USB-6251 or USB-6259
USB-9xxx Devices
Unplug your USB-9xxx and plug it back in or power the
USB device down and up after upgrading NI-DAQmx. If the USB-9xxx is
connected to a USB hub, make sure to disconnect the USB-9xxx from the
hub, not the hub from the computer. Disconnecting power from the USB device
causes installed devices to load the correct version of the firmware.
USB Device Removal During a DAQ Operation
If a USB DAQ device is unplugged while a DAQ operation is being
performed, unexpected results may occur, including causing the operating system
to hang. In these occasional, extreme cases, you must reboot the computer. NI
recommends stopping all DAQ operations on a USB device before unplugging the
device from the computer.
Using the C++ API from Multiple DLLs in the Same Process
If you use the C++ API from multiple DLLs in the same process,
you must access the API from only one DLL at a time. You must stop using the API
in one DLL and destroy all API objects before using the API in another DLL.
Virtual TEDS Data for the NI 9233/9237
If you connect hardware TEDS to NI 9233/9237 channels configured
with virtual TEDS, the virtual TEDS will be replaced with hardware TEDS data
after upgrading to NI-DAQmx 8.5.
Using NI-DAQmx and Traditional NI-DAQ (Legacy) on the
Same Computer
Existing applications developed with earlier versions of NI-DAQ
will run under Traditional NI-DAQ (Legacy). You can use both the Traditional
NI-DAQ (Legacy) API and the NI-DAQmx API on the same computer with the following
restrictions:
- Only one API controls a given device at one time.
– |
After using a device in NI-DAQmx, you must unreserve all NI-DAQmx tasks that
are using that device before you can use that device through Traditional NI-DAQ
(Legacy). If you use a device in NI-DAQmx and then use it in Traditional NI-DAQ
(Legacy) without unreserving the NI-DAQmx tasks, error code -10461 is returned. To unreserve NI-DAQmx tasks, call
the DAQmx Clear Task VI or functions. |
– |
After using a device in Traditional NI-DAQ (Legacy), you must reset the
device before you can use that device in NI-DAQmx, or error code -200324 is returned.
For SCXI devices, you must reset the communicating DAQ device in
Traditional NI-DAQ (Legacy) before using it in NI-DAQmx. For example, E Series
DAQ devices use lines 0, 1, 2, and 4 on port 0 to communicate with the SCXI
module. Error code -200158 is returned if you do
not reset the communicating device in Traditional NI-DAQ (Legacy) before using
it in NI-DAQmx as follows:
- Call the Traditional NI-DAQ (Legacy) Device Reset VI or the Init_DA_Brds function
- To reset devices in Traditional NI-DAQ (Legacy) from MAX, you must reset all
devices at once. Right-click the Traditional NI-DAQ (Legacy)
Devices folder in MAX and select Reset Driver for Traditional
NI-DAQ (Legacy). For a remote RT target, you must use the Traditional
NI-DAQ (Legacy) Device Reset VI.
|
- In an SCXI data acquisition system, you must use the same API to program all
devices—connected DAQ devices and inserted SCXI modules.
Refer to ni.com/support for
details and instructions about the following topics:
- How to add NI-DAQmx code to a Traditional NI-DAQ (Legacy) application
- How to run both Traditional NI-DAQ (Legacy) applications and NI-DAQmx
applications that use the same device
