How to add support for my custom device in Data Acquisition Toolbox Support?

8 views (last 30 days)
Hello
I see there is a hardware verndor list available for Data Acquisition Toolbox, which includes National Instuments, MCC, Analog, Digilent.
But I have my own device, which also generates a huge amount of measurement data, which needs to be connected to Matlab. I see users need to install some kind of 3rd party software to enable support for specific HW.
Is there any rules or guidelines on how this software should look like, or interface with Matlab to enable appropriate functionality?
Thanks

How does your device communicate with the computer? Is it a particular make and model from a company or is this completely custom hardware? We need more information to be able to assist.

This is completely custom hardware, which communicates with over TCP/IP, but on top of it completely custom binary protocol. Device accepts some commands like start/stop measurement and configuration parameter, and during measurement streams 50 channels of 32-bit measurements with 10kSps rate. I can have up to 50 similar devices connected to the same Ethernet Network, so that total amount of data could be quite big.
