MATLAB: How to use Data Acquisition Toolbox 2.6 (R14SP2) with the Measurement Computing USB-DIO96H device

.datdaqData Acquisition Toolbox

I would like to use the Measurement Computing USB-DIO96H with the Data Acquisition Toolbox 2.6 (R14SP2). It is not listed on the supported hardware page at
http://www.mathworks.com/products/supportedio.html?prodCode=DA

This enhancement has been incorporated in Release 2006a (R2006a). For previous product releases, read below for any possible workarounds:
The ability to support the Measurement Computing USB-DIO96H is not available
in Data Acquisition Toolbox 2.6 (R14SP2).
To work around this issue use the following steps:
1. Copy the following file:
$MATLAB/toolbox/daq/daq/private/mwmcc.ini
(where $MATLAB is the MATLAB root directory on your machine, as returned by typing matlabroot at the MATLAB command prompt.)
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:
;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;
