Ok first go through the first list I posted here and work out what you
are missing. Post a list of what you are missing. i.e do you have the
manuals for the MUX2?

There is no reason that I am aware of that the student edition won't
do. At the moment I have not fully transferred to 7.X so 6.1 would be
good also.

Anyway the reson that there is no driver is mainly becuase people in
production processes (where these things are used in volume) need
validated statistical tools. No one has written a complete fully
approved  automotive statistics tool in Labview (I believe), hence no
driver. As the approval process is expensive, long and tortous you
start to understand why.

To get you going if you have all the cables you should start with the
Trerminal Emulator. (I assume Windows here). Set 9600bd 7 data bits,
1Stb, No Parity - no handshake. Press the instrument 'Data' button and
the instrument should send a measurement to the Terminal program. You
may need to 'tinker' (my first choice was refused by the msg bd) with
the data rates and handshake to get the data onto the terminal program
as the handshake could be affected by the wiring on the cable between
the MUX and the host and the data rate could possibly have been
changed on the MUX. You quickly find out that the number of
combintations is awesome - Hence the requirement for the manual.


So go through the list I wrote and tell me what you have or not as the
case may be.
