usb 6008 port problem

Hello all,

I'm using the daqmx usb6008 and I tested the digital io ports via NI MAX. For some reason Port1 lines 0,1, and 3 aren't outputting correctly. I've tried resetting the device and unplugging then replugging the power but no dice. Any thoughts or troubleshooting tips that could help me out? thanks

What exactly do you mean by not correctly? Not outputting a high, no low, something else? Do you have something connected to the lines?

Thanks for the fast reply,

my problem got solved though. The problem was with the 16pin connector to the daq. There wasn't good enough contact with the daq pins so when I connected a multimeter to check the output voltage when I turned those channels high it wasn't outputting high. As soon as I switched out the connector everything was fine.
