This enhancement has been incorporated in Release 14 Service Pack 3 (R14SP3). For previous product releases, read below for any possible workarounds:
The Data Acquisition Toolbox does not support the Measurement Computing PMD-1024HLS board. The complete list of supported devices is available from:
There is a workaround available to use these boards with the Data Acquisition Toolbox 2.5 (R14). For the workaround to support Measurement Computing PMD-1024HLS board with the Data Acquisition Toolbox 2.5 (R14), use the following steps:
1. Rename the following file:
$MATLAB/toolbox/daq/daq/private/mwmcc.ini
(where $MATLAB is the MATLAB root directory on your machine)
to $MATLAB/toolbox/daq/daq/private/mwmcc.ini.old
2. Use a text editor to add the following lines to the bottom of the original mwmcc.ini file:
;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;

Bus = USB
DIOConfigurable = 1
DPORTS = 4
DPORT0LINES = 8
DPORT0TYPE = 10
DPORT0CONFIG = 2

DPORT1TYPE = 11
DPORT1CONFIG = 2
DPORT2LINES = 4
DPORT2TYPE = 12
DPORT2CONFIG = 2
DPORT3LINES = 4
DPORT3TYPE = 13
DPORT3CONFIG = 2
3. Restart MATLAB
