Hi Camey,
It is likely that you are trying to communicate with a NI-DAQmx version that is incompatible with the Data Acquisition Toolbox. In order to download a compatible driver version(16.1.0) , please perform the following steps: 1. Uninstall the 'NI-DAQmx' support package from the 'Support Package Installer' by navigating to Add-Ons -> Get Hardware Support Packages. 2. Restart your machine and open MATLAB to confirm that no 'NI-DAQmx' support package is currently installed by executing the following command at the MATLAB Command Prompt: >> matlabshared.supportpkg.getInstalled 3. Install the 'NI-DAQmx' support package from the 'Support Package Installer'. It should open up the download box and it should initiate the installation process for 'NI-DAQmx' utility. It might take about one hour to complete the installation process. 4. Close MATLAB and restart your machine. 5. Open MATLAB and execute the following command: >> matlabshared.supportpkg.getInstalled
This should list Ni-DAQmx 16.1.0 as one of the installed support packages. Now you should be able to work with your NI devices from within MATLAB.
