[jamyandy]

Hello!

I am using USB-6009 under mac OS 10.6.8 and python.

I am trying to run the following commmand:

analogOutputTask = nidaqmx.AnalogOutputTask(name='MyAOTask')

I get the following message

File "/Applications/PsychoPy2.app/Contents/Resources/lib/python2.7/nidaqmx/libnidaqmx.py", line 180, in CALL

AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'DAQmxCreateTask'

Any help would be very mch appreciated,

Thanks 

j.

Hello Jamyamdy, 

Honestly, I am not too sure about this, but were you able to acquire data before or is this your first trial? 

From the usb-6009 product page, it says the following. 

For Mac OS X and Linux users, download the NI-DAQmx Base driver software and program the USB-6009 with NI LabVIEW or C.
