Importing Channel Configurations for 100s of channels

[mnugent]

Our tests can involve up to 500 channels distributed across PXI, cDAQ, and OPC tags (brought in via system link).

The biggest pain point right now is defining 100's of channels with the FlexLogger graphical interface. We have an excel document that is reviewed by multiple stakeholders that define channel information for all the channels. It would be much more convenient and error resistant if we could somehow import this channel definition file.

I saw in the FlexLogger 2023 Q2 announcment something that suggested the FlexLogger Python API could now help with this. Would this be a possible solution?

Hi!

Could you reach out to me through either DM/email?

The team has some solutions that could potentially meet your needs, and the Product Manager and I would love the chance to sit down and talk through them with you.

I'm in a similar situation, my tests involve up to 800 channels, fortunately all distributed across PXIe.

I have been struggling to find a better and more efficient method to configure channels rather than the FlexLogger GUI. I would appreciate some guidance on this as well if possible.
