Why can't I see a simulated device in myDAQ assistant?

[David-Baratheon]

I have created a simulated device (cdaq 9174) in NI MAX.

I am using the DAQ assistant symbol in labview to create a voltage signal simulation.

When I get to the "select physical channels to add to the task" screen in the DAQ assistant, my simulated device is not showing up, even though I can see it in NI MAX.

Any trouble shooting suggestions?

Hi David,

you should stick with your original thread instead of scattering the problem in different places…

Did you also simulate some modules in this cDAQ chassis?

Why don't you supply a MAX screenshot with your question?

[David-Baratheon]

Yes ok apologies, I don't know if admin can merge the threads.

I haven't simulated any modules. The tutorial I am following doesn't say to do that. It just says to select the device I am looking to simulate. How do I add some modules to it?

Select your simulated chassis in MAX and read the comments…

I right clicked on the chasis and clicked "configure simulated cDAQ chassis and it gave me the optionto add all of the modules I plan to use.

Thanks for your help. Hopefully this will enable simulation now...
