I think that labview can use the Axon, but it won't.

My labview teacher, who is certified by national instruments, said he once tried to use a standard acquisition board with labview that was not made by national instruments. Labview recognized what it was connected to, but simply refused to talk to the board. I don't think the Axon would fare much better.
Maybe my teacher's experience was with an older version of labview. Even tough it didn't work for him, there's no reason why you shouldn't try connecting them.

Good luck.

Yes, the Axon and Axon II can be controlled with LabView.

Just one example:

Linked by Admin, I'm honored, LOL.

pathakh, I assume you are the one posting this question on my site as well. I plan to answer you with a blog post better explaining my communication scheme. Give me a few hours, maybe a day, as I am traveling for work currently.

The short answer, until madsci1016 has more time to go into details, is that he used serial commands to allow for communication. Its not too different from controlling a robot through hyperterminal.

Here's the long answer.

It's a little information overload, but it should teach you a few things.

You should post up an example file

Well, the Axon by default isn't a 'standard acquisition board'. However, if you program in the proper communication protocol (very easy to do), then the Axon will communicate with LabView correctly.
