 The High-Speed DAC boards have a second on-board USB controller, make sure this is connected as well as the main FPGA controller board. To avoid potential confusion, ACE only reports boards on the second controller (where it is required). The High-Speed DAC boards have a second on-board USB controller, make sure this is connected as well as the main FPGA controller board.

-There is also a known driver conflict issue between the NI VISA driver and Keysight's VISA driver (used for automation of equipment). To work around this, try setting the Keysight VISA driver as the secondary VISA driver. This can be done with the Keysight installer. If this doesn't work, you may need to uninstall the Keysight Driver.\\+As of version 1.14, ACE replaces the driver of the on-board controller to avoid any of the conflicts with VISA drivers listed below and installs the DPGDownloaderLite application to replace the High-Speed DAC Software Suite.

 +However, at this time, some High-Speed DAC Eval Boards are not yet supported through ACE but through a dedicated SPI application that requires the NI VISA driver. 
 +The recommended action if you are actively using these High-Speed DAC Eval Boards with dedicated SPI applications is to not update to ACE version 1.14 or install version 1.13 available [[http://swdownloads.analog.com/ACE/ACEInstall_1.13.2728.1194.exe|here]].
