rt: cdaq 9133 is not detecting in labview

[prajwaltheboss]

Hi,

I am using a cdaq-9133. the chasis and its modules are detecting in NIMAX and Ni Network Browser but are not detecting in labview. I am not able to perform even test panels. Please help me out. FYI versions of daqmx is 14.5 and labview is 2014 version

Thank You

What OS are your cDAQ running, Windows or NI Linux RT?

What have you done to detect the hardware/target in LabVIEW?

Hi,

I'm also faced with the same problem. NI MAX is able to pick up the cdaq 9133 but the channels do not come up in Labview.  My system is running on windows 7- 64 bit and labview 2014 and DAQmx 14.5 versions are same as Prajwal's above.  

(I have attached screenshots of MAX and labview interfaces)

Interestingly, in MAX ( under the Remote Systems > Devices and Interfaces sub-menu), I'm able to run the test panels for a NI 9215 module and successfully view signals fed from a signal generator. However, (still in MAX) under My System>Devices and Interfaces submenu, the cdaq 9133 only appears as a usb Icon. This made me believe it's a driver issue.

So I tried doing a complete uninstall and followed the recommended install order (labview>real time module>drivers>  DAQmx) but still to no avail. Does anyone know how I could make the channels available in labview or other ways of testing for functionality? I have tried testing using the DAQ assistant VI and also tried creating a physical channel through a new Project but the channels still don't come up as an option.

Thanks!

You can add your cDAQ 9133 as a target in the project.
Then you should be able to access the channels.

If you use the DAQmx device names list in LabVIEW does it show up there?

Hi, thanks. I can't seem to find the VI on labview 2014. Is it under the Functions>measurements & IO palette?  Let me add that I am very new to labview

Hi dkfire,

I tried adding the cDAQ as a target but I had no luck with that either - a dialogue window comes up and it's not among the "existing target or device" or the "new target or device" option.

I also exported the cDAQ configuration data from MAX into a Labview project but it's not working either.

[dkfire]

You need to add the target under the Project, NOT under My Computer. 

I get close to the same options as you if I try to add a target under My Computer. 

But if I add a target under the Project, at the very top, then I get a lot more options.

Here's where it is on my system:

Thanks!

That actually solved my problem.

Thank you all for helping me out.
