Hi Damsin,
Can you please provide the model numbers of the FP parts you have. Often there is confusion with cFP and FP modules. What version of LabVIEW has the VI been developed in and can you tell me what driver and version you have got installed?
Thanks,

Hi,
In your first post you wrote: "I'm using fieldpoint, and have an analogue output module to receive the data." which leaves me a little confused. Do you mean to say analog input module? Are you familiar with Measurement and Automation Explorer? I'm not clear on what the isco driver is? Is the isco, driver software for third party product? If so then have you been in touch with the third party manufacturer?
You can find out what National Instruments drivers you have in Measurement and Automation Explorer by branching open the software directory in the configuration tree. Can you tell me if you have developed the VI or whether you have inherited the VI (developed by someone else) and are hoping to get it all working? Have you been in touch with the VI's developer to find out how to configure your hardware setup to work with the LabVIEW VI?
I would start by checking the NI hardware you have is working as you would expect in Measurement and Automation Explorer. I.e. send known electrical signals into the input modules and read the values in software i.e. via test panels in measurement and automation explorer and like wise for output modules, for example use test panels in Measurement and Automation Explorer to output voltage values and then check with a multimeter to see if the values are appearing on the output lines of the output module.
I hope this helps
All the best
