Please help me to Data Acquisition Library for MATLAB ML-DAQ Setup

I am currently using MATLAB version R2012b and I am interested in integrating a Contec analog input/output board with MATLAB's Data Acquisition Toolbox. Could you please provide me with guidance or documentation on how to properly initialize the DataAcquisition object for this hardware?

Hi Nguyen,

I see that you are trying to integrate Contec analog input/output board with MATLAB R2012b and initialize a 'DataAcquisition' object.

Unfortunately, you might not be able to do it beause the 'DataAcquisition' object was introduced in the MATLAB R2020a release and is not available in R2012b. I suggest you update your MATLAB to R2020a or the later releases in order to create the object.

Once updated, you can follow the below mentioned workflow to integrate the board with MATLAB:

• Verify if the board is supported using the list provided here:

• Verify if the required drivers and support packages are installed using the following documentation:

• Create a 'DataAcquisition' object:
