If you do decide to purchase a USB-6009 DAQ device on your own, let me know first - our Academic Kit for the USB-6009 is $269 with a copy of LabVIEW Student Edition, which obviously you don't need. It
might be possible to get you a discounted
"FIRST" price on the USB-6009 since all you need is the hardware (and driver CDs), I'll have to check with Academic Marketing to see what I can dig up for you. Since I'm in R&D and not in Academic Marketing, I don't know what's possible - but those guys up there have always been super generous in the past, so maybe there's a chance! Just send an "official" question to the "frc [at] ni.com" e-mail address and ask how much a USB-6009 would cost a "FIRST" team and that'll put the team to work finding out for you; obviously we would LOVE to get these devices into the hands of as many people as possible, and you might be able to use that to your advantage!
And, of course, if you have any questions about how to do any DAQ with LabVIEW just fire off a question in our LabVIEW forum and we'd be happy to oblige!
