Can't fin the DAQ assistant in LabView

[Robin.EGG]

Hi, 

I just bought the NI DAQ USB 6003 and I'm trying use it. I installed Ni-DAQmx 17.6 and I tested the DAQ with MAX.  It worked perfectly.

But when I tried to create a new VI to try to measure a voltage, I couldn't find the DAQ assistant in the functions palet (below Measurements or Express). I tried to uninstall DAQmx, to fix the installation and to fix LabView but nothing seems to work...

Anyone got an idea how to fix this?

PS: I'm working with LabView 2017

Hi Robin,

why do you need such an ExpressVI when the plain DAQmx functions are easy to use?

Are those plain functions available?

If yes: use them. (There still might be a problem with your ExpressVI installation.)

If not: there is a problem with your DAQmx installation. Correct it…

Hi,

I have no DAQmx functions available. I already tried to fix the installation but nothing change.

Hi Robin,

the hard way:

- deinstall anything related to NI

- run the setup routine to install LabVIEW (I prefer 32bit), followed by DAQmx

That should do it…

I will try this, hope it works.

Thanks for the help

Best regards,
