Hi,
A colleague has been writing VEE code and suitably modifying examples for my project, in order to collect data and log graphically the 6 AtoD channels of a Data Translation DT9816 USB DAQ module. We have drivers and other limited information from DT for using this module with VEE but ,regrettably, support for VEE ceased some time ago from DT. We now have a VEE program collecting, graphing and storing to disk, 6 channels of data at 1kHz/channel . However, I have just found that Agilent sell a U2352A USB DAQ. How well supported is this module for use with VEE 8.5 ( or 9.2 if necessary)? Are there any examples for using it with VEE to continuously store data from the U2352A module, graphing six channels on a YT trace in real time ( or slightly delayed) and storing the data for six channels in binary or similar format to disk? 1kHz/channel sampling would be adequate. Considering that this module is nearly double the price of the DT9816, then the support from Agilent would have to be a vast improvement to persuade us to switch modules. We have several projects/applications which need this kind of DAQ function within a large VEE program, which is primarily used to control test rigs.
Kind regards Ashley Derrick

When I get started with U23xx USB DAQ with VEE, I used the VEE Customized Menu.
In the recent, I saw there is vTools for USB DAQ.
The sample programs there helped to get started quickly.
Both are free tools.
To download VEE customized menu, go to http://www.agilent.com/find/usbdaq, click on Technical Support > Drivers & Software, you will see it in the list, something like "Agilent Modular Products VEE Pro 8.5 Customized Menu for U2300A and U2802A " where it is available for VEE 8.5, 9.0. I forgot where I downloaded the customized menu for 9.2 but I do have it installed in my PC.
To download vTools, go to http://www.agilent.com/find/vee, to go Software & Trials, the vTools appear as "USB Modular DAQ vTools"
Hope this helps
