DAQmx: PCI-6722 simultaneous digital and analog output data acquisition for the same card.

I have a PCI-6722 DAQ card that I am programming with DAQmx.

I want to perform a data acquisition for analog and digital ports in the same time.

 

I tried to create 2 tasks but i get the error: (0xFFFCF267): Task name specified conflicts with an existing task name.

 

I tried also to create two channels for the same tasks but i still have problem.

DAQmxCreateAOVoltageChan(_hSamplingTask, "Dev2/a0",NULL , -10.0, 10.0, DAQmx_Val_Volts, NULL);

DAQmxCreateDIChan(_hSamplingTask,"Dev2/port0","",DAQmx_Val_ChanForAllLines);

 

>>> (0xFFFCF091): Task cannot contain a channel with the specified channel type,
 because the task already contains channels with a different channel type.

 

Is it possible to do this test ?

 

Thanks.

As the first error told you, you need to supply a different name for each task.

But both tasks have different names:

 

  result= DAQmxCreateTask("Dev2_PFG",&_hSamplingTask);
    if (result<0) {
            daqmxLogError(result,"DAQmxCreateTask");
            _hSamplingTask= 0;
            return false;
    }

 

    result= DAQmxCreateTask("DioTask",&_DioTaskHandle);
    if (result<0) {
            daqmxLogError(result,"DAQmxCreateTask");
            _DioTaskHandle= 0;
            return false;

    }

In your first post, you are using _hSamplingTask for both the AO and the DIO.

Actually because i tried two solution:

 

1. The first solution is to create two session, one session for AO and the other for DIO.

I get the error when i create the second task:  (0xFFFCF267): Task name specified conflicts with an existing task name.

 

2. The second solution is to create only one session and to associate it tow channels AO and DO.

 

DAQmxCreateTask("Dev2_PFG",&_hSamplingTask);

DAQmxCreateAOVoltageChan(_hSamplingTask, "Dev2/a0",NULL , -10.0, 10.0, DAQmx_Val_Volts, NULL);

DAQmxCreateDIChan(_hSamplingTask,"Dev2/port0","",DAQmx_Val_ChanForAllLines);

 

I get The error : (0xFFFCF091): Task cannot contain a channel with the specified channel type,
 because the task already contains channels with a different channel type.

This tells me you uses the same name for the two task names.  Since you did not supply any code, I cannot verify your setup.

 

The other possibility is that you did not close the tasks and therefore DAQmx still has the tasks open.

In fact I did not share the code because it is a large application that contains several modules and that it will take a long time understand it.
Below you will find the DAQmx code:

result= DAQmxCreateTask("Dev2_PFG",&_hSamplingTask);
if (result<0) {
    daqmxLogError(result,"DAQmxCreateTask");
    _hSamplingTask= 0;
    return false;
}

result= DAQmxCreateTask("DioTask",&_DioTaskHandle);
if (result<0) {
    daqmxLogError(result,"DAQmxCreateTask");
    _DioTaskHandle= 0;
    return false;

}

DAQmxCreateAOVoltageChan(_hSamplingTask, "Dev2/ao0:7" ,NULL ,  -10.0, 10.0, DAQmx_Val_Volts, NULL);
DAQmxCfgSampClkTiming(_hSamplingTask,NULL, 1000, DAQmx_Val_Rising, DAQmx_Val_ContSamps, NUMBER_OF_SAMPLES);
DAQmxWriteAnalogF64(_hSamplingTask, NUMBER_OF_SAMPLES , 0, DAQmx_Val_WaitInfinitely,  DAQmx_Val_GroupByChannel, _DAQmxsample, NULL, NULL);

DAQmxCreateDIChan(_DioTaskHandle,"Dev2/port0","",DAQmx_Val_ChanForAllLines);

 

DAQmxStartTask(_hSamplingTask);
DAQmxStartTask(_DioTaskHandle);

....

....

....
DAQmxWriteAnalogF64(_hSamplingTask, NUMBER_OF_SAMPLES , 0, DAQmx_Val_WaitInfinitely,  DAQmx_Val_GroupByChannel, _DAQmxsample, NULL, NULL));
                                    
DAQmxReadDigitalU32(_DioTaskHandle,1,10.0,DAQmx_Val_GroupByChannel,&data,1,&read,NULL));
....
....
....


DAQmxStopTask(_hSamplingTask);
DAQmxStopTask(_DioTaskHandle);
