About Current and Upcoming Releases
This new release has been developed primarily to support ScanImage users who no longer have ready access to the older Matlab version for which earlier ScanImage releases had been developed. It is also now compatible with the newer National Instruments driver (DAQmx), which many users may prefer to install instead of the older drivers ('Traditional NI-DAQ'). It is anticipated that this version will remain compatible with current and upcoming Matlab versions.

We welcome feedback on ScanImage 3.5 and certainly will address any critical deficiencies that may be identified. Please note that any significant requests are more likely to be incorporated into plans for the new ScanImage package.
