daqmx channel property node

[DavidT]

Hi all,

I've downloaded an example for a quad counter which uses a daqmx channel property node to specify A,B,Z channels.
I have tried to replicate the example using LV8.1 but the only properties that I get are 'Active Channel' and 'General Properties' with 4 sub properties. Why don't the channel properties show up? What am I missing here?

I have attached a jpeg of what im talking about. Any help is appreciated.

Cheers,
Dave

Hi David,

This happens when you have not inserted a DAQ device in your system or your DAQ device is not detected by your MAX.

You could do one of the following

1. Insert a DAQ card into the PCI/PXI slot

or

2. Simulate a DAQmx device in MAX.

By doing this, the corresponding DAQmx properties will show up

Too easy. Thanks!
