scaling DAQmx analogue input

[jakkefire]

Hi,

i created a DAQmx task in MAX with 3 analogue inputs and applied a scale to them. I setup a min,max of 0-4V and a scale of 1V equals 100Newton. When i open and run the task in labview and can find all of these parameters correctly in the task properties but my data is still not scaled. I am using a simulated PCIe-6259 device untill my ordered real unit comes in. So all i see is the 0 to 4V sinewave, unscaled (i would like to see a 0 - 400Newton scaled wave offcourse). Is this because i am forgetting something or is it not supported by the simulated devices ?

Kind regards

Jan

Jan,

This is because of the way scaling works with simulated devices.  See this KB http://digital.ni.com/public.nsf/allkb/BF779A6C2EC01F5686256EB4007DB800
