How do I change the configuration channels for Analog Outputs on a PXI-6704?

Solved!
Go to solution

I can't seem to figure out how to access the configuration channels for Analog Outputs (Channel 33 and 35) for the PXI-6704.

 

This piece of test equipment is out of tolerance, and needs to be calibrated.

 

I've followed the calibration procedure http://www.ni.com/pdf/manuals/374081b.pdf, but am getting hung up on the step 8 where it says to repeat steps 4-7 while changing _cal_ao_current_offset. I can't figure out how to open this channel as it is not listed as a physical channel for step 5.

 

I'm using Labview 7.1

 

Thanks

Hi! What you need to do is add "Internal Channels" to your channel list so you can select the _cal_ao_current_offset or _cal_ao_voltage_offset.  This is done by right clicking the channel drop down list and select "I/O Name Filtering...".  There will be a check box that says "Internal Channels" and will provide you all the available internal channels to input into your Create Channel vi.  I attached some pictures illustrating how to do this. Cheers!
