Determine which NI cards are installed on a computer using Labview

[chassan]

Hello folks,

Hopefully this is an appropriate question for this forum.

Is there a way to programmatically determine which NI cards are installed in a computer using Labview?  We have a limited number of test computers so the hardware sometimes changes.  I would like to write a collection of apps in Labview to find out what hardware is installed and then perform some configuration settings based on the hardware.

Best Regards,

Chris

Hi there,

Looks like what you need might be here:  Retrieving full device and channel list dynamically.

pallen,

Thanks for the good information.  This looks like it will certainly do the trick!

Best Regards,

DaqMx System properties allow all devices to be referenced, then the device properties will give almost anything about the device wired into activeDev.
