Failure to connect MATLAB to AD2 on MacOS 12

[JonasD]

Hello,

I am trying to use the AD2 with MATLAB R2022b on an M1 Pro MacBook Pro with Mac OS 12.6

Using a library provided by my professor, I should get a confirmation, that the connection has been established. I, however get an error message.

The code I ran is as follows: 

Quote

hdwf = AD2Init();

and it should return the device ID.

Both the AD2Init() function as well as the error message in the command window are attached.

 

Thank you in advance for any help.

Hi @JonasD

The dwf.framework should be installed to and used from /Library/Frameworks/ or bundled with custom app.

I don't know which WF version are you using but the newer ones are combined build with native M1 support:

I reinstalled waveforms and Matlab with the newest versions and I still get the same error message. I followed the steps in the waveforms installer, where it tells you to move the dwf.framework to the Frameworks folder.

Hi @JonasD

Try modifying the .m to use /Library/Frameworks/dwf.framework/..

[JonasD]

still doesn't work, same error message as before, although I noticed that the standard file path for the dwf.frameworks folder is /Applications/WaveForms.app/Contents/Frameworks/dwf.framework/... instead of /Library/Frameworks/... Furthermore, I noticed that the user library (/admin/Library/.... ) does not have a Frameworks folder and only the system wide library has that. Which one should I use then? I tried the system wide one and added the path to it in the .m file

any ideas anyone?
