Can LabVIEW querry MAX for active devices?

Solved!
Go to solution

Is there a  way for LabVIEW to query MAX for active devices?

If at some point a measurement instrument (a DMM for example) is added to my test system, I would like to be able to obtain the IO device name from MAX and then be able to communicate with that device without having to manually interact with MAX.

 

Thanks in advance.

Hi AT,

 

you can check active devices.

 

Are we talking about DAQmx or VISA?

Hi AT,

 

then you are interested in using the VISAFindResources function?
