This page shows supported versions of the NI-DAQmx hardware driver with LabVIEW or LabVIEW Real-Time Development Systems. Reference this information to ensure you install the correct version when upgrading or updating your system or software. Using incompatible versions may result in errors, missing LabVIEW palettes or functions, or devices and tasks failing to show up in NI Measurement & Automation Explorer (MAX).
Note: For information about NI driver and development software compatibility after 2023 Q3, please refer to NI Driver and Development Software Compatibility.
LabVIEW service packs do not affect compatibility with NI-DAQmx. For example, DAQmx 15.0 is compatible with LabVIEW 2015 and also LabVIEW 2015 SP1. This does not necessarily apply to other NI drivers.
The table below refers to NI-DAQmx and LabVIEW (Community, Professional and Run-Time) versions.
