USB625:1 incompatible on linux?

Hello,

I really hope that question has never been asked before (i searched for quite a while now).

Context: I am working with a Thorlabs OCT system (Callisto) which i composed of a NI USB6251 card that control all the components inside. The Thorlabs company told me they don't have a linux compatible SDK and told me to check with the NI SDK. As of now I tried to connect via VISA and nidaqmx from my linux distribution (Scientific Linux 7 (CentOS based)) but I can't seem to find the usb device anywhere. I tried on a windows computer with NI MAX and it worked so now I really am stuck to this point.

 

So the question is: As I am not working on labview, is there a way to communicate with the USB6251 from my OS? If yes, is there example on how to do so?

 

Sorry if this sound like a dumb question, I am not really use to work on interface.
