NI-DMM soft panel can not start

Solved!
Go to solution

Hello fellows.

 

I just encountered a strange problem with NI-DMM - trying to use it for the first time.

To start: I have PXI-1045 with 16 populated slots and 8306 remote controller.

 

Installed PXI-4070 in slot 16 - can not run self diagnostics but I can reset the card. Moreover,  in MAX I can not read card temperature and calibration dates. NI-DMM gives me an error and can not start completely, please see attached screenshot.

Switching PXI card from slot 16 to slot 15 - same story.

Reinstalled drivers 17.5 to 17.1: same issue - card recognized, but can not run self check and soft panel would not start. This make me thing it's a driver issue.

 

If anyone encountered the similar issue and found solution - please share you experience.

 

Thanks,

Sergiy

This is an error I'm getting when trying to self test PXI-4070 card. Any Ideas what can cause this?

Hi Sergiy,

 

Can you click on the menu to expand the software tab inside of NI MAX and upload a screenshot of the installed software just to provide more context for your setup? Also are you powering on the PXI chassis before powering on the computer when booting up?

Hi Daniel.

 

So I got another card, this time PXI-4065 and getting the same issues.

PXI chassis was powered before computer, all latest drivers installed etc.

 

Please see screenshot of my software.

Any clues why it's happening? I have PXI-1045 and DMM card goes in slot 15 if that's important. I have SMU in slot 16 and it works just fine

Hey Sergiy,

 

It looks like you have all of the correct drivers installed and the versions installed should work. To clarify, are you still seeing both cards fail the self-test in NI MAX with error 223911 as well? Also, have you tried using different slots in the chassis for these cards?
