Enhanced Performance of getsample and putsample Functions

The getsample and putsample functions perform faster when acquiring and sending a single data sample using NI-DAQmx driver software.

StandardSampleRates Property Defaults Changed

The default value of the StandardSampleRates property is changed from "on" to "off".

Upgrading from an Earlier Release

This section describes the issues involved in upgrading from Data Acquisition Toolbox Version 2.10 (Release 2007a) or earlier.

Obsolete daq Functions

Two functions with daq in their name are obsolete in Version 2.11 and are replaced with other functions. The toolbox will no longer support these obsolete functions and will display an error if you try to use them. If your code still uses these obsolete function names, you must update it to use the new function names.

Obsolete Function Name

New Function Name

daqaction

daqcallback

daqpropedit

Three Analog Properties Hidden

The following three properties of analog input objects in the NI-DAQmx adaptor are now hidden:

These properties are used only by Traditional NI-DAQ devices. If you have code that explicitly uses these properties it will continue to work, but code that puts the object's properties in a structure will no longer find these three properties. Tab completion for these three properties will no longer work.

Compatibility Considerations

In this release of the toolbox, the three properties DriveAISenseToGround, NumMuxBoards, and TransferMode are hidden for NI-DAQmx boards. You can, however, explicitly access these properties, but changing their values will not have any effect on NI-DAQmx boards.
