This isn't a very useful error message for a test panel, as I had not specified a timeout, nor does it say how to fix the problem.
Sometimes it dies with this error instead:
"Error -200329 occurred at daqmxcfg_DAQmx Start Task.vi. Possible reason(s): An error has occurred while attempting to configure the device for an analog input acquisition. If an external master timebase is being used, make sure the source is connected and generating an appropriate clock. Otherwise, contact National Instruments Technical Support. Task Name: _unnamedTask<1>:
This error message is even worse. With the test panel there is no external master timebase.
So here I am NI Tech Support. How do I get this board working please?

Hello Dr. Time,
Do you receive an error no matter what mode you specify? The timeout is a default value in the test panels, it cannot be specified by the user. The default is usually 10 seconds. Judging from the first error, it seems somehow your device is not getting the sample clock signal to collect a data point before the timeout expires.
I recommend resetting the device by right-clicking on it in MAX and choosing reset. Then, use the DAQ Diagnostic Utility to test the board. This utility will be able to give us a more specific idea of what could be wrong.
Please try this and let us know the results.
Thanks,
Laura
