Missing DAQmx Create Task.vi among others

Hi all,
I'm trying to run a .vi made in Labview 8.5 using Labview 2012. I have the most recent version of DAQmx (9.5) installed, but it's unable to find the file DAQmx Create Task.vi, and if I chose to ignore it about 6 other files pop up that it is also unable to find. I have uninstalled and installed DAQmx on both my computer and two other computers running Labview 2009 to try and get this to work, but nothing seems to be solving the problem. Any ideas what might be going wrong here?
Thanks!

Are you trying to open the VIs using 8.5 or 2012? Are the DAQmx VIs in the palette?

How to remove channel from DAQmx create Task.vi

Vikas H. Kumthekar
ASE
Tata Consultancy Services
Pune-1

How are you using the DAQmx Create Task.vi? Are you using it to include a global channel or copy a task that was previously created in Measurement and Automation Explorer (MAX)? If this is the case the only way to remove a channel would be to delete the global channel or modify the physical channels for that task in MAX. If you are creating a new task you can use the DAQmx Create Channel.vi to specify the physical channels that you would like to include or exclude.

Error 229771 DAQmx create task internal MIG error

Receiving error 229771 @ DAQmx create task.vi: 2, internal error in MIG software. not start task. - for a simple ThermoDAQ read application
reinstalled drivers, attempted to start NI configuration mgr and Device loader but they are immediately stopped- disabled anti virus, etc. help?

Hi eremark,
There are a few things we can try to troubleshoot error 229771. This error can occur if NI services are not running and occurs when LabVIEW tries to communicate to these non-running services. It can also occur if you have a corrupt MAX database. There are a few things we can try
1. Can you please try verifying if NI services are running?
2. Can you check if you are administrator of your PC?
3. Do you know if DAQmx was installed under an administrator account?
4. Have you tried disabling your firewall?
5. Try removing all DAQ devices, restarting your computer with them removed, shutting down the computer again and connecting them back up.
6. Did you repair your daqmx drivers or reinstall them? It is important to make sure you do a true reinstall (http://digital.ni.com/public.nsf/allkb/ADD22E807D5A12AD862579EC00760F79?OpenDocument) instead of repair which will force overwrite anything from previous installations

Missing SubVI DAQmx Create Task. Error

Hi All,
I have written a program in Labview 2009 and I am using the PCI-6034E DAQ card for measuring data. I created an executable of this program, and I wanted to run the program on another computer, although this computer is running the PCI-6024E DAQ card. However, when I run the program, I get the error message which is attached.
I have downloaded the Runtime Engine for labview 2009 on this computer, So I'm not sure why the program isn't working. I have also checked the measurement instrumentation on the computer with the PCI-6024E and it detects the card and can make measurements and is also using the same channel as I was using with the PCI-6034E card. Could someone please let me know how I can fix the problem?
Thanks.

DAQmx Base is a completely different driver than DAQmx. You cannot install DAQmx Base and use DAQmx functions. When you create the installer, select DAQmx to include as one of the 'Additional Installers'
Actually, I get the feeling that you totally skipped over creating an installer. This is an option when you right click on 'Build Specifications' and is something you should have noticed when you created the exe.

Can't find DAQmx Create Task.vi and lots of other VI's

Hello, I have the problem that appears in the subject.
I have the LabView2012 version on my computer, and I also downloaded and installed the NI-DAQmx9.4 but I can't run the project correctly because of those missing VI's.
Please, any help is much appreciated. This is getting very frustrating at this point.
Thanks a lot!
Solved!
Go to Solution.

DAQmx 9.4 does not support LabVIEW 2012. You need to install DAQ 9.5.5 or newer (9.8 is currently the latest version of DAQmx).
See this KB for more details:NI-DAQ and LabVIEW Version Compatibility (for Windows)

Error in Error -200485 occurred at DAQmx Create Task.vi:2

I keep having this error:
The specified task cannot be loaded, because it is not in Data Neighborhood.
Check Data Neighborhood in MAX. Look for similar characters, such as the capital letter "O" and the number zero.
I would like to know what is the problem with the program. I've attached the VI.
Basically i am trying to control a physical LED connected to the NI Elvis II by comparing the inputs from DIO 0-7 and DIO 8-15.
So if DIO 0 is on, DIO 8 must also be on to turn on the LED.
But at the moment, the program cant run. Need help in spotting the mistake! >< Thanks!

From the code you attached I guess you haven't created a task (This is used to configure which is input and which is output) so you can take a look at the page how to create a task and go ahead.
Good luck

Missing subVI DAQmx Create AI Channel TEDS(sub_.vi DAQmx Create Channel( TEDS-AI-Voltage-Basic). vi.

Hi,
    I have seen several discussion regarding this topic, however it seems that none of the solutions are working for me. Here is my situation, i am using LabView 7.1 which I use to generate my .EXE, when I generate my .EXE I use the Tab Intaller Settings to generate the Setup.msi. I then take the folder which contains the .EXE and the installer and bring it over to another machine which is running VM Ware with a freshly installed windows XP. (to make sure nothing is on the machine and then i get surprise at the custormer's site)
   Once this was done, i would start by lauching the installer and then the .EXE the result was the following, I would get the following message:
Missing subVI DAQmx Create Task.vi in VI instance      1    3tst
.vi.
Missing subvI DAQmx Create channel (TEDS-AI-Voltage-Basic).vi
in VI Instance 1   3tst.vi.
Missing subVI DAQmx Create Channel( AI-Voltage-Basic).vi in VI

Missing subVI DAQmx Timing(Sample Clock).vi in VI instance
1   3 tst.vi
Missing subVI DAQmx Read(Analog 1D Wfm NChan nSamp).vi in
Vi instance   1   3tst
then as suggested in other discussions of this forum I download (537MB) and installed
on the target machine (VM Ware) the nidaq710 which i downloaded from
http://digital.ni.com/softlib.nsf/websearch/C1F802E457EA042586256DD00001B0C9?opendocument&node=132070_US
This did solve some problems BUT I am still getting the following message when I launch the EXE
Missing subVI DAQmx Create AI Channel TEDS(sub).vi in VI DAQmx Create
Channel(TEDS-AI-Voltage-Basic).vi.
Thank you
Maldini

Hi Maldini,
Thank you for posting to the NI forums. Is the VM Ware PC using the same operating system as the development PC? Also, are you using DAQmx 7.1 on the development computer, or are you using a more recent version? When distributing applications, the driver version on the deployment PCs must match the driver version of the development PC.
If this is already the case, then you shouldn’t be receiving any of these error messages. There are few things that may fix this problem.
Reinstall the DAQmx driver.
Perform a repair install the DAQmx driver on the deployment computer.
Upgrade the DAQmx driver on both the development and the deployment PCs.
With Windows XP and LabVIEW 7.1, you are able to use the latest version of DAQmx, which is currently DAQmx 8.5.
After going through these steps, please post back if you continue to have problems.

Empty task out from DAQmx Create Virtual Channel (VI)

Hi,
I'm using a NI USB_6008 in my project and I use ao0 to provide my device with supply-voltage. And I use ai1 to measure voltage on my device. The thing is that I have been using another identical USB_6008 before, and everything worked just fine, but now when I want to use this new DAQ, it doesn't work at all and I get "empty" or "unnamed" task out. I have the right serial-number and device-number in my hardware initiation. And I have used the test panel in "Measurement & Automation Explorer to check that the channels works properly. I have also changed the USB-port and also updated my drives. But nothing has helped.
Unfortunately I can not send the code here since it's too big and complicated but I'll attach a screen-shot of the part the I'm stucked in with the "probe" values.
I'll really appreciate it if someone could explain for me why I get "unnamedTask".

Just came across this while looking for something else.
Your tasks are unnamed because you haven't named them . You can name your task when you call DAQmx Create Task.vi:
In the case of the first VI, the task is being implicitly created when the channel is created, so an "unnamed" task is the result.

New Hardware / DAQmx Install, LabView 7.1 Now Missing DAQmx VI's?

Hello -
I've been running Labview 7.1 and some applications we've built with it for some time now. Due to an old DAQ board failure, we had to upgrade. Upon receiving the new (PCI-6225M) DAQ board, we had to update DAQmx (to 8.9.5) in order for this new board to be supported.
In doing so, it appears that the DAQmx VI's I had for Labview 7.1 were actually removed from the system. When I try to load my 7.1 applications, I get errors saying that it can't find various DAQmx VI's (like the DAQmx Create Task and Read VI's). Since it allows me to browse for them, I browse to the directory structures that *do* have them now (intended for LV 8.2+, which we don't have). If I select these VI's they seem to be found okay, but then I get an error for each VI saying that it's only for a newer version of LabView, not v7.1.
So what gives? What can I do? Why on earth would a newer DAQmx installer actually go in and remove already existing files from my previous install that previously worked fine? I am not impressed. What should have been a simple board upgrade now appears to be setting us back some significant time.
Thanks,
Brett

Hi Dennis,
I also have common issue. I am using labview 7.1 with DAQmx version 8.8. Recently, I just bought the cDAQ-9178, which requires me to upgrade my DAQmx to version 9.4. After installation completed, I discovered all my DAQmx missing. My question is:
1. Do you have any patch to let me stay @ LV version 7.1 with the new DAQmx 9.5 without missing DAQmx vis? I need the new DAQmx to be able to connect with cDAQ-9178.
Thanks you for your time, Dylan

.Exe Missing DAQmx subVIs

Hello everyone,
I built an installer for my .exe. I included:
1. NI LabVIEW Run-Time Engine 2012 SP1
2. NI-DAQmx Core Runtime 9.6.2
3. NI-DAQmx MAX Configuration Support 9.6.2
The computer I made the VI is a Windows XP machine. The computer I want to run the installer on is a freshly-installed Windows 7 machine. When I attempt to run the installer, I get the following error:
Missing subVI DAQmx Create Task.vi... missing subVI DAQmx Create Channel (TEDS-A1-Voltage-Basic).vi... Missing Timing (Sample Clock).vi... Missing Control Task.vi... Missing Clear Task.vi... Missing Stop Task.vi... Missing external function nilvaiu.*AQReadNChanNSamp1DWfm:C...
It looks like I'm missing DAQmx VI's, yet I included DAQmx in the installer.
Thank you.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

I know these sound like a no-brainer questions but, did you run set-up.exe from <Directory>volume? Can you open MAX on the target machine? If so what software components are listed? Did you reboot to finish installation?
My 8-Ball is screaming that this is a simple error that will involve a <face palm> moment.

Can Max global channels be programmatically added to a created task?

I can add Physical channels to a created task, but cannot seem to add global channels to a task that was previously created. The problem here is that I want to create my task with the channels (both physical and global) in a specified order.
Thanks,
Mike Sachs

Hi Mike-
You can add global virtual channels to a programmatically-created task by using the DAQmx Create Task VI. This allows you to create a task with existing global virtual channels and then add virtual channels at run-time in the usual manner. Here's an example that shows a global channel (created for Dev5/ai0) and a virtual channel within the same task:
Hopefully this helps-

Stand-Alone application with LabView 7.0 getting error can't find DAQmx clear task.vi

I have attempted to create a stand alone vi with the Build Application or Shared Library(dll) in LabVeiw 7.0
When I put it on another PC to test it I get the error "can't find DAQmx clear task.vi"
the other PC has Labview 7.0 and DAQmx 8.1 also.
I believe my problem is in the source tab where you are supposed to add support and dynamic vi's I have search the forums and Ni's data base and have not found a solution.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Hi LabTech09,
When you run the executable on the other computer is when you get this error? Do you have the exact same versions of LabVIEW and DAQmx on both computers? Does the dialog allow you to navigate to the DAQmx clear task.vi? If so, you can find these VIs in C:\Program Files\National Instruments\LabVIEW 7.0\vi.lib\DAQmx\configure\task.llb. Does the executable work on the development machine (the machine it was compiled on)?

Error while creating task list

Hi All,
I am configuring change management , i have created project and assigned logical component for that when i create task list it gives below error .
For object /TMWFLOW/M , number range interval 01 does not exist
Message no. NR751
Diagnosis
The database table NRIV has the delivery class 'C', i.e. the SAP default settings are only in client 000.
Procedure
Create the missing number range interval in customizing.
Transaction code:
I have already maintained number ranges.
Thanks
Santosh

Hi ,
Make sure you maintain the number range interval to be no. "01" and not "1" or anything else. I kept getting the "Error reading information for number range object /TMWFLOW/D" (and /M/ and /V) even though I had added the number range interval as described in the manual. As soon as I deleted the interval "1" and put it back with "01" that check passed and I could create a task list.
Thanks
