Using the Daq Configuration Control Panel Applet ( for non-USB Devices )
Main unit data acquisition devices such as the WaveBook, DaqBook, and DaqBoard non-USB devices must be installed
into the operating system by using the Daq* Configuration control panel applet.
1. The Control Panel is accessed through the Windows Start Menu.
Windows Vista Users: IOtech Data Acquisition CDs (versions 8.0 and higher) include a daqxcpl.exe
file which you must use if you need Windows Vista compatibility. After installing software from the
IOtech CD [or from our website (www.iotech.com)]; you can access the daqxcpl.exe file by navigating
from the Windows Desktop as follows:
Start menu

Programs

DASYLab Support Drivers

DaqX Configuration Utility
2. Add and configure your data acquisition device in the control Daq Configuration Control Panel Applet. Refer to the
data acquisition user’s manual for instructions on using the applet and configuring device names.
The "Device Name" assigned to the data acquisition hardware in the Daq Configuration utility will
be imported and used within DASYLab for hardware identification.
3. Verify your hardware installation using the Resource
Test in the Daq Configuration Control Panel Applet.
After completing the Daq Configuration test use
WaveView, DaqView, or DaqCOM Explorer to verify
connections and configurations.
Using WaveView in this manner can be very
beneficial, especially in applications making use of
WBK signal conditioning expansion modules.
