How to do PCI interfacing for LabVIEW ?

[sonika tanwani]

I have to make a project - PCI interfacing for some control applications. It is data aquisition type. as far as i know, it requires the developing of the window driver software for driving PCI controller IC. and programming is done in C but the functions will be called in LabVIEW which is used for interfacing. Kindly help me to know how to proceed as i don't have any basics of software development and interfacing. i am new to project making itself.

Re: PCI interfacing

You will need a PCI device driver. What is the OS which you will use (WinXP, Win95, Win98, Vista)?

Re: PCI interfacing

If you want to do it the hard way find the corresponding Windows Driver Development Kit (usually there is a PCI example included) and a PCI specification, get some C compiler and a lot of patience.
If you don't - look for Jungo WinDriver or KernelDriver or go for the classic Compuware DriverStudio and SoftIce.
If your Windows happens to be Vista, look for MS Driver Framework.
Wish you luck!
