Why wont Labview recognize my PXI 6115 DAQ slot?

[JoePiazza]

I have a PXI 6115 card that is placed in a PXI-1042 chassis. Everything is plugged in and turned on but the DAQ assistant doesnt recognize that it is there.  HELP!

Hello Joe,

I have a couple questions that may help diagnose this problem:

1. Does the PXI-6115 show up in Windows Device Manager? This will tell us if the controller is recognizing the card.

2. Does the PXI-6115 show up in Measurement & Automation Explorer? This will tell us if the card is being associated with the driver.

3. What version of the NI-DAQmx driver do you have? The PXI-6115 is only supported by newer versions of NI-DAQmx. If you have an older version, it may not be supported. I would recommend visiting the driver download page here to make sure that you have the latest version of your drivers.
