matlab not connecting to 4284
Hi,
The unit will not connect via Matlab, but will connect with the software from pico. The device does not appear in the instrument control toolbox dialog. I am using software api PS4000Asdk_r10_5_2_1 and 64 bit matlab. I followed the video to include the ps4000a.llb, the wrap, and picoIpp.llb into the directory containing the example scripts. I installed windows sdk 7.1 and ran mex -setup. Upon trying the generic block script i get the message:

An error occurred while executing the driver connect code.

If this error is not an instrument error, use MIDEDIT to inspect the driver.

If I use the specific serial number I get the same error message.
What am I missing?

Re: matlab not connecting to 4284
Hi mmatheny,
I presume you mean dll instead of llb files?
If you have installed the latest stable release of the PicoScope 6 software (6.10.16.2), then new USB kernel drivers have been installed which are not compatible with the dlls provided in the SDK (which preceded this release).
Please e-mail support@picotech.com and we can provide some compatible dll files.
A new SDK build will be available soon.
