PXI 1042 chassis, controller unknown in NIMAX

[whemdan]

Hi,

I have a PXI 1042 chassis, with an NI PXI-8360 controller, however, when I open NIMAX, the controller appears as unknown (see attached image).

I am using NIDAQmx driver version 9.9.0f0 on a Windows 64 bit machine.

The chassis is equipped with NI PXI-4461 and NI PXI-4462 modules, both of which are not recognized. I assume this is because the controller is unrecognized?

I am interfacing to the chassis through an NI ExpressCard-8360 - could that be causing the problem?

I have attached a screen capture of the issue.

I have also mode sure that I start with all PC's turned off, then turned on the chassis first then the PC. Any help is greatly appreciated

Thanks,

Wael Hemdan

You should be installing software that you received on the PXI Platform Services CD.

And your ExpressCard also needs drivers to work.

You should be posting questions in the PXI forum.
