parse fieldpoint IAK file --> get channel names and ranges?

Hello,
 
I am looking for a way to read the fieldpoint channel names in their real order (not sorted) _and_ their corresponding range settings from an IAK file. Hardware is a FP-1001 network module connected via RS485 and a handful of AI-110s and AO-210s.
 
Has anyone found a way to do so yet?
 
Tried the FP get configuration info VI without succes, it sorts the channel names alphabetically. Edited the VI (threw out the sort array funktion), but no success: Channels now are mixed in no sensible way (the documentation confirms this behavior).
 
For the ranges, I've looked at the optomux !E, but a) it needs a FP ressource connected (can't work offline this way), and b) I have no clue yet of how to match these ranges with the well-mixed channel names 😞
 
 
Maybe someone here can help?
 
 
Yours, sincerely,
Sebastian F. Kleinau

Hi,
Please take a look at the following knowledgebase:FP Get Configuration Info.vi Returns Values in a Different Order
I think this is what you are looking for.
