matlab-modernize-daq

Port MATLAB Data Acquisition Toolbox code from the discouraged (legacy) session-based interface (daq.createSession, addAnalogInputChannel, startBackground, DataAvailable listeners, queueOutputData, wait) to the recommended DataAcquisition interface (daq("ni"), addinput, start, ScansAvailableFcn, write, preload). Use when migrating legacy DAQ scripts, converting session-API calls, working with DataAcquisition objects, writing multi-feature DAQ scripts that combine triggers, callbacks, continuous acquisition, or analog output. Also use when a user says their DAQ script "used to work" or "errors on R20XX", since modernizing legacy session-API code is a frequent fix for those failures. Trigger keywords: daq, DAQ, NI, session interface, addtrigger, addclock, ScansAvailableFcn, ScansRequiredFcn, daq.createSession, addAnalogInputChannel, startBackground, queueOutputData, DataAvailable, evt.Data, evt.TimeStamps, wait(d), preload, discouraged, legacy, modernize, R2020a.
