Supported hardware
DAQAtlas is in development. This is the hardware the beta supports. DAQAtlas loads each vendor’s library at runtime when it’s installed. Plug a device in and it appears in the device list within a few seconds. Devices from different vendors record together into one run.

Hardware questions
Do I need hardware to try DAQAtlas?
No. DAQAtlas includes three simulated devices, a USB-1608GX-2AO, a USB-1208FS-Plus and a USB-TC, so beta testers can build dashboards, record and export before anything is plugged in.
Can I use NI DAQ hardware with a Mac?
Yes, through DAQAtlas Bridge, which is in development alongside the app. NI-DAQmx does not run on current macOS, so the bridge runs on a Windows or Linux PC next to the NI hardware and streams its devices to DAQAtlas.
Can devices from different vendors record together?
Yes. Every connected device records into the same run, with shared markers and one timeline in review.
Is this list final?
No. DAQAtlas hasn’t been released yet, and this list covers the beta. Support will grow before and after launch.
My device isn’t listed. Will it work?
Tell us when you join the beta. Device requests from beta signups decide what we add next.
