MATLAB: Does the Data Acquisition Toolbox support traditional NI-DAQ drivers

Data Acquisition Toolbox

I would like to know if the Data Acquisition Toolbox supports traditional NI-DAQ adaptors.

Best Answer

Beginning with Data Acquisition Toolbox 2.13 (R2008b), you will receive the following warning when using the Traditional NI-DAQ adaptor provided by the Toolbox:
Warning: Support for the National Instruments Traditional NI-DAQ driver will not be provided in future releases of Data Acquisition Toolbox. Instead, it will be available as a separate download. Consider upgrading to the NI-DAQmx version if it supports your hardware. See Solution 1-5LI9NF for details.
This warning has no immediate impact but is intended to advise you for future planning. Once this adaptor is available on MATLAB Central, MathWorks will not be making updates to the adaptor. The source code for the adaptor will be provided as part of the MATLAB Central download.
Note that there is no change for support of devices that use the NI-DAQmx driver and this change is limited to devices supported solely by the Traditional NI-DAQ driver.
You may disable this warning by typing:
warning('off', 'daq:<objecttype>:adaptorobsolete');
where "objecttype" is one of:
analoginput
analogoutput
digitalio
For example:
warning('off', 'daq:analoginput:adaptorobsolete');
