Hi I am currently in the middle of a project in which I am using a NI 6210 to gather data from various load cells. Unfortunately I cannot directly connect the 6210 to the computer due to the set up involved. I am wondering if it possible to transfer the data collected, wirelessly, to the computer which uses Lab VIEW Software for analysis.
Thanks for the help

NI used to manufacture wireless cDAQ but it has been discontinued. With the USB DAQ, there is not much you can do. Depending on the location of your setup, here are a few suggestions:
1. Extend the connection.
2. Use a longer USB cable. What is the Maximum Recommended USB Cable Length for NI USB DAQ Devices
3. Use a separate laptop to connect the USB DAQ, then send the data to another machine over the network. E.g Using the LabVIEW Shared Variable
4. Use a USB-over-IP adapter, but so far I have never heard anyone use it successfully. Reference: digi 5-Port USB AnyWhere Remote USB Over IP Extender in combination with NI USB-6008
