Hi,
Here is the issue description:
MAX version: 4.6.2f1
daqmx: 9.0.2
Hardware: cDAQ-9178 , NI-9474 Digital output.
For this module one has:
1. In MAX create a Global Virtual Channel as a CTR output on ctr0.
2. use the Duplicate in the menu to create a second counter output. Change its name, and change it ctr output to ctr 1 OUT.
3. In MAX, the Pulse Output Setup pane should reflect the change by showing the ouput terminal pointing to the proper PFIi
4. Export the settings to an INI file, and look at the CO.Pulse.Term settings for both CTR channels: they will both appear with the SAME PFIi !
5. Using LabVIEW Write a vi that generate pulses on these 2 channels , you will get Error -89137 saying a PFIi resource is already used. If you look at the Task property CO.Pulse.Terminal, it returns the same for both tas, which is the same error seen in the ini file.
Can someone at NI check this? Thx.
Laurent
PS: I posted this message in the LabVIEW board as I did not find one for MAX
Solved! Go to Solution.

Hi Laurent,
I verified this behavior with DAQmx 9.1 and a simulated device. I will file this as a Corrective Action Request (CAR). Creating the channels manually works correctly and produces the correct .ini file. Sorry for any inconvenience this may cause.
