I'm using a PCI-7833R board with Labview 8.6 and FPGA 8.6. I followed the instructions here: http://www.ni.com/pdf/manuals/372004b.pdf
and ran C:\Program Files (x86)\National Instruments\LabVIEW 8.6\vi.lib\LabVIEW Targets\FPGA\RIO\R Series\78xxR\783xR\Calibration\Public
nirio78xxCalibrationSelfCal.vi
but I'm getting Error code: -2000
Error: Hardware Calibration Map Revision Number does not match supported software version.
How can I load the correct Hardware Calibration Map???
I've loaded several digital FPGA examples no problem but the analog output ones I'm testing do not work. On the example, I am supposed to control the voltage between -10V to +10V but all I see is -200mV to +.02V.
Anyone have any suggestions? Seems like my calibration map is corrupted or something. Is there an easy fix for this?
Also I ran the "NI 78xxR Calibration Utility". When I hit the "Read" button, it says: "Operation Failed" "Error -2000 occurred at an unidentified location" "This error code is undefined. No one has provided a description for this code, or you might have wired a number that is not an error code to the error code input."
Then the Calibration Temperature box reads: 16666.7
Calibration Date/Time: 12/31/1903
4:00 PM
Pressing the Self-Calibrate button produces the same error.
Also, in the http://www.ni.com/pdf/manuals/372004b.pdf it says the password to the nirio78xxCalibrationSelfCal.vi block diagram is supposed to be "NI". However it says wrong password when I try to view the block diagram.
Can someone please help me figure out what is going on with my PCI-7833R board? Thanks!

Hi henry99,
I'm sorry you're having trouble calibrating your board. The calibration VIs come with the NI-RIO driver. When was the last time you downloaded this driver? Technically, it is the last thing you're supposed to install after Labview and the FPGA module. You can get the latest version of the driver here.
Then try the calibration again to see if it completes successfully.
