DAQiFi

DAQiFi Core 1.8.0 🎉

Two things got easier this release: finding your device, and handing it to an AI agent.

⚡More robust networking: Now browses over mDNS and comes back with the address, port, serial and firmware already filled in.

✨ In the MCP Registry: the DAQiFi MCP server is listed in the official Model Context Protocol registry, so Claude, Cursor or any MCP client can discover it and drive a Nyquist directly.

…plus faster connects, reliability fixes, and smaller improvements under the hood.

DAQiFi Core 1.6.0

Point an AI agent at your bench and let it do the work. This release rounds out the MCP server so an agent can run a measurement end to end: configure the device, take a reading, drive an output, and pull back what it recorded.

🤖 AI agents drive the rig: over MCP, an agent can now read a live
measurement, drive an analog output, and read back an SD recording.

🎛️ Better support of Nyquist 3 hardwar: your device's DACs show up alongside its inputs with their voltage range, resolution, and last-commanded value.

📊 Know your sample rate: new acquisition statistics answer "am I actually getting the rate I asked for?" from the samples themselves.

DAQiFi Core 1.5.0 — now on NuGet 🎉

⚡ Calibration confirms: calibration and voltage-precision commands now read the device's own error queue back, so a refused command raises a clear error instead of quietly reporting success
🔌 WiFi updates self-heal: a failed flash no longer leaves the WiFi module unreachable until a power cycle; Core recovers it automatically
🏷️ Cancellable connect: connecting, streaming, and tearing down a device can all be cancelled and awaited properly, with IAsyncDisposable support

DAQiFi Core 1.4.0 — now on NuGet 🎉

Our open cross-platform .NET SDK for DAQiFi data-acquisition devices just got a lot harder to knock over. A capture that loses its connection no longer loses your session:

⚡ Survives a dropped link — opt in, and a device that drops mid-capture reconnects on its own and picks the stream back up where it left off

📶 SD card over WiFi — list, download, and control logging over the network, no USB cable and no walking over to the device

⏱️ Connect that can't hang — connect and teardown honor a CancellationToken, and devices can be `await using`'d
…plus safe concurrent access from multiple threads, live device capability reporting, and a long list of reliability fixes under the hood.

DAQiFi Core 1.2.0 is out.

👉 https://github.com/daqifi/daqifi-core/releases/tag/v1.2.0

Big release for DAQiFi Core.

DAQiFi hardware is now AI-enabled through MCP.

That means MCP-compatible agents can now discover devices, connect, configure channels, and start logging data from real DAQiFi hardware.

Also included in the recent releases:

✅ AI control via MCP
✅ Fully decoded live data with per-channel samples, scaling, and timestamps
✅ Hardware outputs with Digital I/O and PWM support

DAQiFi Core is free, open source, and built for developers working with DAQiFi devices.

Our posting frequency finally cleared Nyquist. No more aliasing between social media updates. DAQiFi Desktop 3.3.0 is live.

The only other pictures I took in Nashville- the hotel pool deck at sunset and the inside of their Parthenon replica. (The latter is a museum and I was happy to have Ruth Righi to geek out with there - so rare to have a travel companion that also reads all the descriptions!)

All the other “pictures” are in my memories 😉
