Measurement Computing data acquisition devices support in Data Acquisition Toolbox across releases

Are Measurement Computing DAQ devices supported in Data Acquisition Toolbox?

Answer 1

[MathWorks Support Team]

MATLAB R2017a

Measurement Computing data acquisition hardware is supported via the Session interface in MATLAB R2017a.

Note:

Supported functionality is for analog input and analog output operations (Voltage measurement channels with inputSingleScan, outputSingleScan, startForeground, startBackground) in MATLAB.

The following functionality is NOT currently supported, but it is considered for a future release:

 - Digital channels

 - Hardware trigger

 - External clock

 - Compatibility with Data Acquisition Toolbox Simulink blocks

To use Measurement Computing devices you need to install the "Data Acquisition Toolbox Support Package for Measurement Computing Hardware" Add-on from MATLAB Add-On Explorer.

  MATLAB R2016a - R2016b

Measurement Computing data acquisition devices are not supported by Data Acquisition Toolbox in MATLAB R2016a - R2016b.

  MATLAB R2015b and prior

Measurement Computing data acquisition hardware is supported only by the Legacy interface (analoginput, analogoutput, digitalio) in 32-bit MATLAB installations.

Hello Would like to know will the toolbox support ethernet interface DAQ? Ex. MCC E-1608

Dear MathWorks Support Team,

Could you please update on this matter? The MCC support page on the Mathworks website just sends me here, but this is more than 18 months old. I'd particularly like to know if DIO is now supported in the newer Matlab versions.

Thank you.
