Hi, We need to duplicate a working system in which we program a PCI-MIO-16XE-50 using NI-DAQ 4.9.4 and Codewarrior 8.0 on Mac G4, running OS 9.2.2. We have a PCI-6031E, but programming the 6031E using NI-DAQ is not supported for Mac OS (that is info from NI web site.)
We could clone the entire system by buying another MIO-16XE card and use the existing code, or we can use our existing PCI-6031E and rewrite the NI-DAQ calls using the NI Measurement Hardware DDK. These options represent the extremes of "high-cost + no program development" and "no cost + extensive program development". I am hoping someone can recommend a middle ground: perhaps a cheaper, equivalent non-NI card which has Mac Drivers, or an NI-based option I have not considered?
