Hi,

I'm trying to use an aquisition card from Measurement Computing (USB-1208FS) with matlab 2010a.

When I try to create an analoginput object I get teh following error:
>> ai = analoginput('mcc',0)
??? Error using ==> analoginput.analoginput at 121
Failure to find requested data acquisition device: mcc.

and daqhwinfo does not show the existence of an MCC card either:
daqhwinfo

ans =

ToolboxName: 'Data Acquisition Toolbox'
ToolboxVersion: '2.16 (R2010a)'
MATLABVersion: '7.10 (R2010a)'
InstalledAdaptors: {2x1 cell}

>> ans.InstalledAdaptors

ans =

'parallel'
'winsound'


The card is installed in InstaCal and works great using any other software (InstaCal tests, or TracerDAQ). I have reinstalled the card and the driver serveral time for good measure, without effect.

I am at my wit's end on what to do next... Any idea?

Thanks
_MM

According to the page liked above, my product (USB-1208FS) is supported starting from the toolbox v. 2.8. I guess I have 2.16 and therefore I should be good?

I forgot to mention that I'm running Windows XP 32bit.
I also tried to run the command daqregister but got an error in response:
>> daqregister('mcc')
ans =
Unable to load adaptor: C:\MATLAB\R2010a\toolbox\daq\daq\private\mwmcc.dll.
The specified procedure could not be found.

sorry for the confusion:
i was glued to the subject, where you state
....cannot access mcc daq USB-1298FS...
not: USB-1208FS...

Two things come to mind:
1. InstaCal version is not 5.89 or later; additional InstaCal API calls were added in R2009b that require upgrading to version 5.89
2. You need to be a Administrator on the PC when running daqregister; once daqregister has been run successfully by an admin you can log in as any user and run

All the best,
Sherryl
