Developing Your Application in Traditional NI-DAQ
(Legacy)
Note If you are not using an NI ADE, using an NI ADE prior to version 7.0, or are using
an unlicensed copy of an NI ADE, additional dialog boxes from the NI License Manager
appear allowing you to create a task or global channel in unlicensed mode. These messages
continue to appear until you install version 7.0 or later of an NI ADE.
This section describes how to configure and use Traditional NI-DAQ
(Legacy) to control the SCXI-1125 in LabVIEW, LabWindows/CVI,
Measurement Studio, and other text-based ADEs. These NI ADEs provide
greater flexibility and access to more settings than MAX, but you can use
ADEs in conjunction with MAX to quickly create a customized
application.
