Solution
There are several reasons why you could be getting this error all relating to the NI-DAQmx driver you've installed. First, you will need to
verify what version of NI-DAQmx and LabVIEW is installed on your computer.
- You have an incompatible version of NI-DAQmx with LabVIEW:
To verify which version of NI-DAQmx you need with your version of LabVIEW, refer to this
compatibility table. Download and install the proper version from the
NI-DAQmx driver page .
- You have installed the NI-DAQmx driver before installing LabVIEW or your NI-DAQmx driver is corrupt:
This error occurs often when drivers are installed before LabVIEW.
Force reinstalling the driver should resolve the issue. A force reinstallation can also fix a corrupt driver by ensuring all files are properly removed.
- You only have NI-DAQmx Runtime installed, which is missing the Application Development Environment:
NI-DAQmx Runtime Driver does not include ADE Support which contains APIs for LabVIEW. To access ADE, you will need to
download and install the full version of the NI-DAQmx driver . The full version will be listed as NI-DAQmx XX.X.X (without the phrases "Runtime" or "Configuration Support" included). To verify that you do not have the ADE Support driver installed, go to NI MAX > Select Software and Drivers and you should see three DAQmx drivers, if you do not see ADE Support then you need to download it.
- You did not use the DAQmx offline installer when you installed DAQmx to a system without an internet connection.
If you installed DAQmx to a system without an internet connection, make sure to use the
offline installer.
