Hello,
I have a DAQ board model USB-6356 that I would like to use on my Ubuntu 18.04 LTS. Searching on internet I found out that the driver version 21.0 does supports this DAQ on Ubuntu 18.04, so I installed it successfully. But I am not able to communicate with real hardware not even run in simulated mode. I will describe the processes that i used in this two cases do clarify the steps:
=====================
Simulated Mode
=====================
- I saved the below configuration as nidaq.ini:
[DAQmx]
MajorVersion = 21
MinorVersion = 0
[DAQmxDevice DevFake]
ProductType = USB-6356 (32 MS)
DevSerialNum = 0x0
DevIsSimulated = 1
ProductNum = 0x7561
BusType = USB
- Then I loaded this configuration with no error using:
nidaqmxconfig --import nidaq.ini
- So I checked the load status with nilsdev who reported:
DevFake [DAQmx Simulated] [Failed to Load]
=====================
Real Mode (with board)
=====================
- I saved the below configuration as nidaq.ini:
[DAQmx]
MajorVersion = 21
MinorVersion = 0
[DAQmxDevice DevFenceSmart]
ProductType = USB-6356 (32 MS)
DevSerialNum = 0x1DA324A
ProductNum = 0x7561
BusType = USB
- Then I loaded this configuration with no error using:
nidaqmxconfig --import nidaq.ini
- So I checked the load status with nilsdev who reported:
DevFenceSmart [DAQmx Simulated] [Failed to Load]
If someone has some any solution/workaround, I would appreciate.
Best regards.

so far USB devices are not supported under Linux.
