how can i get the serial and the tipe of model of the target i have inserted in the pc

You can take what P Anand did and expand it just a little to get more out of it.

In the top example you use a for loop to iterate through the attached devices and make arrays of the devices.

In the bottom example we create a cluster and add the information to this cluster and get a cluster array of the data.

Doing it this way may be useful in the future if you want the operator or user to select a device or you just want your code to be easier to use in the future.

mi idea is to do a program that recognizes all kind of NI cars, 6009, 6210, cdaq 9172... can be possible????

Yes you get the product type and the serial number in the information that you get from this VI. I am not sure of the interface that you are looing to use. I think what I believe that you are trying to do is to find the attached Daq device and make your program work with that. Is this correct?

If so then you really do not need the model or serial number you will instead need the device name. When you set up your task. Set up every thing but the task name and when the program starts look to see what is connect find the device name and send that to your task.
