Issue Details

I'm planning to use an CompactDAQ Ethernet chassis or USB CompactDAQ chassis in Linux. Are there any drivers (such as NI-DAQ™mx) available that allow the use of CompactDAQ chassis in Linux? 

Solution

As of the release of NI Linux Device Drivers (July 2019), USB CompactDAQs and TSN-enabled Ethernet CompactDAQs (9189 and 9185) are supported on Linux.

Use the page NI Hardware and Software Operating System Compatibility to check hardware, NI-DAQmx and Linux compatibility.
