About This Release

ScanImage 3.5 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. ScanImage 3.5 is known to be compatible with Matlab 2007b. In addition, it is now compatible with the newer National Instruments driver (DAQmx), rather than the Traditional NI-DAQ driver required by earlier ScanImage releases.
