Getting some errors when get data of power supply through device NI 9233 and Python3

First of all, sorry if i'm posting on the wrong topic

I'm using nidaqmx module and python3 to get some data from a power supply through NI 9233 device.

However, I'm getting some errors:

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
DaqError                                  Traceback (most recent call last)

      1 with nidaqmx.Task() as task:

    606         number_of_channels = len(channels_to_read.channel_names)

    129     elif error_code > 0:

DaqError: Task contains physical channels on one or more devices that require you to specify the Sample Clock rate. Use the Sample Clock Timing function/VI to specify a Sample Clock rate.

You cannot specify a Sample Clock rate if Mode is set to On Demand.
Task Name: _unnamedTask<0>

Status Code: -201087

I was following the nidaqmx tutorial from its website (https://nidaqmx-python.readthedocs.io/en/latest/).

with nidaqmx.Task() as task:
    task.ai_channels.add_ai_voltage_chan("Dev1/a10")
    task.read()
