Channel Name Adressing in LabVIEW

Hi,
I am experiencing measurements with SCXI modules.
I just can not configure the channels for acquisition signals in the front panel, because i have 2 modules one for each signal. I have a "AI SampleChannel.VI" in diagram block for each signal. So, the problem is, how can i inform LabVIEW which channel in which module have to be read ?
Here are the hardware that i have:
SCXI 2000 chassis
SCXI 1200 module
2 - SCXI 1121 module
2 - SCXI 1321 terminal blocks.
Regards.
Jose Luiz.

You can set-up & name them in NI-DAQ then just refer to that name in the VI.

OR, you can name them in the vi...example: "ob0!sc1!md1!0:3" would give you
Channels 0 thru 3, on the first module, in the first chasis from the first
DAQ card (or board).

Hope this helps.
