Automatic Code Generation for Tasks using Custom Scales...

[ASharma]

I just realized that if I generate configuration code from a Task, the configuration code does not include code to automatically create any custom scales that the Task uses.  I want to generate the configuration code so I can share the code with others without having to share my MAX configuration.  However the generated code still calls custom scales in MAX, so it turns out I still have to share my MAX configuration.  Is this a bug?  I know that scales can be created programatically using the "DAQmx Create Scale.vi".  I would have expected the automatic code generation feature to have used this VI.

Thanks.

Hi,

You are correct. The Generate Code functionality does not create a DAQmx Create Scale VI for you and you will have export your MAX configuration or add scaling using the DAQmx Create Scale VI. If you would like to see this feature added to the Generate Code function I would highly recommend you submit your feedback to the Product Suggestion Center.
