I'm trying to create a generic VI that can handle different types of inputs. Right now, I have analog inputs going to either a PXI-6224 (directly), an SCXI-1104 (controlled by a different 6224), and an SCXI 1530. My VI uses a configuration file where the user specifies which channel to use. Since it's possible that the user gave a name to the device in MAX, I can't rely on the device name to determine whether I should set up the bridge circuit attributes for the 1530. Is there a way I can pass in the channel ID like "Dev1/ai5" and get back "SCXI-1530"?
Thanks,
Keith.
