I reproduced the example of synchronized program that we get when downloading Win64 USB drivers. But when calling the usb_write method I get error "usb_write for enable handshake trouble 6"
[code]
nStatus = usbwrite(usbHandle, &usbdata[0]);
if (nStatus == FALSE) {
// ERROR
printf ("usb_write for enable handshake trouble %d\n", GetLastError());
return 1;
}
[/code]

Why is that?[/b]

Hi,

The error codes are defined here:

http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library ... 85%29.aspx

Error 6 is "invalid handle".

In your code you don't check the returned value from the "opendriver" call.
usbHandle may be NULL at this point.

To verify the success of the driver install,
does the Labview_DLL_SyncTest.exe that you downloaded work?

The [b]Labview_DLL_SyncTest.exe[/b] works withouth the problem as long as I don't stop it, so I guess I'm good on driver point.
I will try to fix my code a little bit regarding dll inclusion and check this in detail.
