Using a Contact Image Sensor device with LabVIEW

[ssousy]

I have a Contact Image Sensor (M206-A6C2) and I am wondering if it is compatible with Labview. If it is, do I need to use a driver? How can I get started on capturing data with the sensor? Are there any good documents to read regarding this? Any direction is very appreciated.

You are going to hve to use some sort of hardware to connect to that. LabVIEW is software.

An NI data acquisition device may be useable but I have not really looked at the part's data sheet. I suggest you study that and discuss your requirements with your local NI Sales Engineer.

Hi ssousy,

There don't seem to be any custom drivers available for that device. What communication protocol does it use to connect to the computer?
