the Data Acquisition Toolbox software is compatible only with specific versions of the Universal Library drivers or the associated release of the InstaCal software, and is not guaranteed to work with any other versions. For a list of the driver versions that are compatible with the Data Acquisition Toolbox software, refer to the product page on the MathWorks Web site at http://www.mathworks.com/products/daq/.
If you think your driver is incompatible with the Data Acquisition Toolbox software, then you should verify that your hardware is functioning properly before updating drivers. If your hardware is functioning properly, then you are probably using unsupported drivers. Visit the Measurement Computing Web site at http://www.measurementcomputing.com/ for the latest drivers.
Suppose you are using InstaCal software with your hardware. You can access this software through the Windows Start button.
Select Start > Programs > Measurement Computing > InstaCal.
The driver version is available through the Help menu.
Select Help > About > InstaCal.
To troubleshoot your Measurement Computing hardware, you should use the test feature provided by InstaCal. To access this feature, select the board you want to test from the PC Board List, and select Analog from the Test menu.
For example, suppose you want to verify that the analog input subsystem on your PCI-DAS4020/12 board is operating correctly. To do this, you should connect a known signal — such as that produced by a function generator — to one of the channels, using a BNC cable.
If InstaCal does not provide you with the expected results for the subsystem under test, and you are sure that your test setup is configured correctly, then the problem is probably with the hardware.
