Posible to list all installed high-speed digitizers in Labview?

[Fedor]

Hi,

I would like to scan for and list all the NI boards installed on a given PC using Labview. For example, one can see all the DAQmx compatible devices by accessing "DAQmx System Properties:Device Names".

My problem is that I can't seem to find any way to see NI-Scope compatible devices using NI-Scope or other Labview drivers.

Any help?

Fedor.

You can use NI-ModInst which is under the Scope Pallette>>Utility>> NI-ModInst.  All you need to do is open a ModInst session with NI-Scope selected, which will tell you the number of NI-Scope devices and then with a For loop you can get all their names, and then finally close the NI-ModInst session.

There is also an example VI found here:

<drive>\Program Files\National Instruments\LabVIEW <version>\examples\instr\niModInst\niModInst EX Find Installed Devices.vi

Thanks!

I overlooked it.

Related question: for a given NI-Scope device, is it possible to query allowed voltage ranges and input impedance values, and if so, how?
