DAQ problems..... error 50103

am have a problem with my vi.I have a main vi that can select different vi's through a subpanel, also on the main vi is indicator for a power supply and one for a load cell if these go under the rquired level or above a weight they stop.
The problem is that when I select one of the operations calibrate and read height ( see attached library ) the DAC has a error which I dont know how to fix. the error is 50103 which occured at DAQmx Read (Analog 1d wfm Nchan Nsamp).vi or at DAQmx Start task.vi which is in the DAC assistant front panel when you open it. It is in the library attached the main.vi is viewer open that and run it and ye will see
ye might have to put a constant for the load cell and battery to stop them for stopping it
I am using DAQ PCI-6040e

Your DAQ Assistant task is continuous. Yet, you only read data once. So it would appear that a finite task would be better. I'm pretty sure that you get this error the second time you run this sub-vi because the task, started the first time you ran it, is still running. That's why you get the resource reserved error.

DAQ Asst Connection Diagram & Error 50103

Hello LabVIEW Community,
I am currently trying to integrate two different VIs which both require an AIGND on my SCB-100.
The SCB-100 has two separate AIGNDs (pinouts 1 and 2), but in the two DAQ Asst VIs I am using, the connection diagram for both asks for pinout 2.
I think this is leading to a Error 50103 about reserved resources.
Is there any way to switch one of the DAQ Assts' AIGND to pinout 1?
Thank you all for your help.

Thank you very much, Mr. Knutson.
I didn't do a thorough search. I assumed it had something to do with my two DAQ Assistants, and figured it was that they shared a pinout as the error said something about resources being reserved.

Application on Win7 64bit throws error -50103, but not on Win XP 32bit host

LabVIEW application newly installed on Win7 64bit host throws error -50103.
Same aplication deployed from same installation disk on Win XP 32bit host have been working for 2 years withourt problem.
I did have a problem with importing the MAX configuration from the Win XP 32bit machine to the Win 7 64bit machine.
My solution was to install all the drivers from my most recent Devaloper Suite 2012 DVD.
After that the executable did run fine, except when the variuos DAq tasks are executed for the second time in a loop it thows error -50103.
If i click ok on the erro popup, everything else works fine until in the next pass of the loop I get the same error.
Why would I get error on one host but not on the other one?
How do I fix this?

A common error that you can find numerous posts about with a search

Error -50103 occuring in one program, but not occuring in another similar program

Hello,
I'm a new user of LabView and I'm trying to figure out how a part of this programming process works. Anyway, the block diagram of the working program consists of the first two pictures (C:\Users\Labview\Pictures\errorsetupnew1.jpg -and- C:\Users\Labview\Pictures\errorsetupnew2.jpg). The parts in question are the DAQAssistant9 and DAQAssistant12 in the lower half of the diagram. When I run the program, everything goes fine.
So now I'm trying to run two other programs that both share the same properties as these two DAQAssistants, but they are in two separate programs. When I run one program, it works, but when I run the other program, Error -50103 occurs at DAQmx Control Task.vi:10. Pressing continue yields Error -50103 occuring at DAQmx Read (Analog 1D Wfm NChan NSamp).vi:3.
So my first attempt at solving it was to consolidate it into one program and run it all together, however the same error shows up. I isolated the two While loops which seem to be causing the problem into a test program (third picture) and the error occurs there as well.
My question is what is different from the program in the first two pictures that is allowing the program to run correctly and the test program (which can be extended to the program that I need to work).
I'm new, so please let me know how many beginner mistakes I might be making here!
Thanks

I'm not currently at the computer with the files in question, but what if I attached those instead when I got the chance? The problem is that I don't believe I am using the same DAQ resource in two different tasks. The command line runs correctly in one, but can not run in the other even though the part giving the error is just a copy of the other program.
I'm trying to run through the previous posts about this particular error but the LabView lingo is something I'm still getting used to. Thank you for bearing with me and helping.

Error 50103 the specified resource is reserved - task name - on 4 modules

Hi all.
I'm sorry i put this post by mistake in Measurement Studio for.NET: smileyindifferent:
Let me tell you my configuration:
software:   Windows XP sp3, Labview 8.5 en.
hardware:   NI-cDAQ chassis 9172 with 4 modules installed (in this order):
                        1. NI-9217 (4 RTDs)
                        2. NI-9217 (4 RTDs)
                        3. NI-9219 (4 RTDs)
                        4. NI-9219 (4 RTDs)
So, i want to aquire 16 temperatures.
In MAX v4.3, all is working fine.
As you aspected, I have the famous error 50103: "The specified resource is reserved. The operation could not be completed
as specified". "Task name: unnamedTask<9>".   - highlighting module #2.
My goal is to read these temperatures consecutively, i mean: mod1 ch0..ch3, mod2 ch0..ch3 and so on.
My programm (vi) is like that:
In a while loop I have a Stacked Sequence Structure which has 4 frames, each for every DAQ Assistant asigned and configurated
for those modules.
So i have: Assitant1 for mod1, Assistant2 for mod2, and so on.
The Assistants work well in configuration preview mod. (I see 4 temperatures on each module).
But in my programm, i got the error above, on module2.
I read something about this error and I understand that I can't use 2 or more resource in the same time.
I understand that a resource represents a channel on a module.
At each DAQ Assistant output I have a Split Signal (split in 4)
But with this configuration and this algorithm I suppose I read all 16 channels in total consecutively, not in the same time.
Am I wrong ?
How can I fix the problem ? : smileysad:
Thanks.
Solved!

Hi dsasorin,
The error that you have mentioned can be caused due to a number of reasons. There is a knowledgebase article listing several reasons for it that can be helpful. Have you created a task beforehand in MAX? Are you generating the code directly from it or are you writing the code in LabVIEW and asking it to use the channels from the task you specify? Have you tried using the lower level DAQmx VIs such as DAQmx Task name and then tried generating code from that by right-clicking and selecting Generate Code >> Configuration and Example. Hope this helps!

Error 50103 in LabView using NI 6363

hi everyone,
I have encountered a problem. I was trying to write a Labview program in which i will get simultaneous signal from an unsteady pressure transducer and a steady pressure transducer.(both give voltage input signals)
both will run for the same time however the frequency of aquisition is different in both cases, so i was trying to make 2 DAQ allocations..but when i run it shows the error 50103 that resource is allocated.
So is there any way that i can group all my voltage tasks in one VI but at the same time give diffrent aquisition frequency(100KHz) for unsteady transducers but an aquisition frequency of around 100Hz for the steady transducer.
Is there any way that both could be run simultaneously. Thnaks in advance.
If possible just can u share the sample VI too....
Solved!
Go to Solution.

thank you very much for your reply but if you'll clear another doubt is that whether it is not possible at all or is their some way?
I can combine all the tasks that is not a problem, but the problem is whether there is any way around the sample rate thing or we have to give same to all??

Mystery Error -50103

OK, so I'm finally up to LV2009f3, doing some cDAQ work.
I'm adding code for devices, one at a time and checking them out.
(I'm using simulated chassis, and simulated devices - thank you, NI, for this capability!)
When I add the strain gage (NI-9237). I start getting an error (-50103 - resource is reserved).
MAX says the board works fine, and gives me the simulated sinewave.
I boil my code out of my program, and it works fine by itself.
But when I try to do BOTH module 4 (9201) and module 6 (9237), I get the error.
The attached snippet (I like snippets, BTW) shows the code.
Before I added the error wire to force the strain gage module to configure AFTER the voltage module, I would get the error every time.
But, sometimes it would occur on the VOLTAGE module, and sometimes on the STRAIN module.
I could run it several times, and the error would come from one or the other, but it would occur every time.
So what are the rules here? They are completely different modules, yet something is temporarily tied up when I try to configure them in parallel.
It's some sort of race, judging by the error happening on one or the other. One chain is claiming this "resource", and the other finds it busy and complains.
Yet the error is attributed to the START TASK vi.
What am I missing? What are the rules about this?

More info:
IN the snippet I showed, running the things serially removed the problem.
In my real code, I do the CONFIG at one point, and the START at another.
IOW, in the CONFIG operation, I CREATE CHANNEL, set DAQ TIMING and set BUFFER SIZE for two modules, in parallel, getting two TASK IDs that I remember.
In the START operation, I START both tasks in parallel.
Forcing the CONFIGS to run sequentially does NOT fix the error.
Forcing the STARTS to run sequentially does NOT fix the error.
Forcing them both to run sequentially does NOT fix the error.
Even adding a 1-sec delay between STARTS does NOT fix the error.
IOW, it appears that I have to START one task before I can CONFIG the other, a state I don't understand.

Error -50103 the specified resource is reserved

I installed DAQ 8.0, and loaded the example AcqIntClk and ir ran with a simulated device PCIMIO16XE10. Then I ran a measurement studio example in which I had to create a task using MAX. That ran okay. Then I deleted the task I had created, and returned to AcqIntClk and ran it again. This time I get the error when I press Start

Error 50103-

Hey
I have a common problem of error 50103 with my programming and I do not know how to get around it and I was wondering if I could get some help with it. I am trying to generate two different signals using DAQmx. One is used to generate a signal for the camera and the other is used to generate a signal for a galvo. Unfortunately, the signal for galvo must change in a loop. My major problem is that the signal for camera has to be outside of the loop and the signal for the galvo has to be inside the loop. Therefore, DAQmx Write and DAQmx Start Task vis must be out side of the loop to operate the camera while array for galvo signal is in a loop after that. Is there anyway of storing the signal for camera outside the loop and run it then add the signal for galvo in the loop?
Any help would be very much appreciated.
Thank you.

I'm not sure how to advise you without more details about what signals you're trying to generate and how they are supposed to interact with the camera. In the jpg you attached, I can't see exactly what data you're generating in the bottom right left for loop, but I wonder if you're using analog output to produce a digital pulse (perhaps a trigger for the camera). What hardware are you using? It might make more sense to use digital output or counter output if this is indeed what you're generating.
How are the two signals you're generating used, and how must they be timed with respect to one another?
Dan
Hey Dan,
Originally, the bottom for loop created 2 arrays for both camera and the galvo systems. For the camera, the for loop generated digital signals just to turn on and off the camera. For the galvo, the for loop was used to generate an increasing voltage and a decreasing voltage to move the galvo kind of like a door. So when they are synchronized, the camera would take a picture of a sample at different positions controlled by the galvo.
However, now I am trying to change the movement of the galvo for each snapshot of from the camera. Instead of taking picture of the whole sample at once, I have to decrease the increment and get more pictures of the sample in the same position and that is why I have to put the signal for galvo in the while loop.
If I used digital output for the camera Daqmx write and analog output for galvo Daqmx, would the error 50103 still pop up?
If there is anything that is not clear, please tell me and I'll try to answer as thoroughly as possible.
Thanks

Error -50103 : How can I get the resource which is reserved

I get the error -50103 when I try to start two A0 task on two different channels. The error message tells me that "The specified resource is reserved".
But how can I known what is the specified resource. Is that a clock signal, a buffer or what else ?
More generally, how can I known the resources used by a task ? Is that a VI which can gives me all the resources used by a task?
Thank for your answer

Ipod cannot be restored because of unknown problem (Error 1437)"

One day when I was listening my ipod when I pass the other song ipod screen freeze and I reset it and when its open all the songs and videos are gone Then I connect it to my laptop and I took the Error says "iTunes has detected an iPod that appears to be corrupted" When I try to restore it through itunes, I take an error message says "ipod cannot be restored because of unknown problem (Error 1437)" And the ipod is not recognised in itunes after this message..Then I searched the help files; I updated my itunes to the latest version, also restart my computer and change the usb port Im trying.. Also tried to update the serial control drivers but nothing's changed..One time I tried to do it in safe mode.. Nothings Changes... I everything I found in apple help files.. I see lots of unanswered questions in many months but Please HELP

Well it could be dead forever or you might just need some simple repairs. The problem i have seen in some is that when dropped the hard drive either comes loose (easy to fix) or gets killed (little more expensive).
There could be other problems but i have seen those problems more often than something drastic like the whole board dieing.

Hi,
Sorry I didn't realize that i didn't answer to this question because of reference to others.
I solve it with change of values in rwserver.conf
one of values is default but other solve issue.
<property value="no" name="keepConnection"/>
engLife="2" or engLife="1"This happens in my env because application often change user (db schema). And this is workaround for restarting engine.
