Use two DAQ assistants at the same time

[Allard171]

Hello,

I want to read multiple data from different analog input channels on my DAQ device. However, when I try to create two seperate DAQ assistants for each input, it gives an error stating 'The specified resource is reserved. The operation could not be completed as specified'. Can I not use two DAQ assistants at once?

Do I need to add the different channels in the same DAQ assistant? I tried that, but than I could not seperate the data into different graphs.

How does this work?

Kind regards,

Allard

You cannot have multiple tasks of the same type (in this case Analog Inputs) on the same device.  So just have 1 DAQ Assistant to read all of your channels and then seperate your channels for their individual processing.
