No Devices and Interface in MAX

Hi all,
I recently installed the evaluation version of LabVIEW and I am trying to communicate with a Mark-10 Series 5 force gauge. The problem, however, is that MAX does not seem to detect the instrument or any other instrument. There isn't even a Device and Interface tree.
I am running Windows 7 and the Mark-10 drivers are installed (and is detected by the device manager as a USB device).
Anyone have any idea what could be wrong?
Solved!

I recently went through this problem. You have to register a USB instrument to use the VISA driver. There is an NI tutuorial on how to do this. You can find the tutorial here.
This allows 3rd party instruments to show in MAX and be used in LabVIEW.

  • No list tree of device and interface, software in MAX sytem. using pci 6034E and chasis 2345

    Hye, i got the problem about this device.
    I using PCI 6034 E which will connect to SCC 2345 to measure current and voltage.
    My os is 32 bit Windows XP.
    First i install this software, my MAX listed the tree of devices & interface which is PCI 6034 E and chasis 2345, and all download software are listed in tree of software.
    By the way, when i start to measure the current, my MAX is working fine.. but, the problem is starting in the next day, wheni try to measure againt, all the list are dissapear. Then i uninstall all the NI component and reinstall again. Thereare a lot of install and reinstall again and again.. By the way the result is still same. Do not have any tree appear..
    so, any colution for my problem?
    i try to solve this problem, and i read that when the tree of devices and interfaces not appear, it's maybe because we using driver : NI 488.2 , i try to uninstall this driver.. by the way the result is still same...

    sahizansalman,
    It looks like the same is happening with the Software list. This is often a sign of a MAX database corruption. I'd try the steps outlined in this knowledgebase: 
    What is the Process For Removing MAX Database Corruption?
    Feel free to post back if this does not work. 
    By the way, do you know what device is showing up as unknown in the device manager? You did not mention anything besides your PCI DAQ card and SCC 2345, which are showing up fine.

  • Missing Devices and Interfaces in Conviguration tree in MAX

    I trying to configure our instruments in MAX, however devices and interfaces is missing from the configuration tree.  How can I fix this?

    Hi Nem,
    Thanks for the reply and I hope your well today.
    Ah ok, your trying to communicate with an instrument and LabVIEW. That is fine, so firstly I would suggest looking for a LabVIEW 'Driver' or LabVIEW VI library where the programming has already been done for you. Looking at ni.com/idnet I coudln't find a driver for the MW100.
    Do you have VIs already? Or are you looking to program from the beginning? If so - do you have a programmer guide to the MW100?
    Generally, though, to see the device in MAX you'll need the NI-Driver which handles the connectivity to the device.. this in general is NI-VISA, which can be downloaded at ni.com/downloads.  This handles GPIB/Serial/USB. However, we have more specific GPIB functions in LabVIEW which are installed with NI-488.2, and for Serial NI-Serial. I would advise installing the respective one also. (To confirm you'll need VISA to see the device in MAX).
    A great guide for the process you need to follow can be found here,

  • I have installed succesfully a PCI cards seen by windows but it does not appears in the device and interfaces tools of the Measurement and automation manager?

    Cannot install new objects in device and interface to use the ni-imaq library and to take image from my camera.

    Which PCI card did you install? The PCI-8252 and PXI-8252 will not appear in MAX. Does your card appear in the Windows Device Manager?

  • NIMax shows error when opening device and interface

    I have just installed NI-VISA 3.1. NIMax will not open the devices and interfaces configuration to allow me to see the GPIB and PXI devices.
    It gives a message of "NIMax.exe has generated errors and will be closed by Windows. You will need to restart the program."

    Hello,
    It sounds like an installation has been corrupted. As a general, first-order fix for such problems, you can uninstall and reinstall the program with corrupted files (using add/remove programs from your control panel). To get a better idea for which program has corrupted files, when MAX crashes click the details button (if one shows) in the error message (include such information in any repost as well!). If your system was stable prior to installing NI-VISA 3.1, you can try uninstalling and reinstalling NI-VISA. If you have the time, I would uninstall all of your NI hardware and software, then reinstall your NI software, then reinstall your NI hardware (you should check your hardware manuals to be sure that your specific NI hardware does not require instal
    lation before the software). Also, if you could provide the version information for all of your NI software and your current hardware setup (NI and otherwise), it may open other options for solutions!

  • Prime Infrastructure Device and Interface Health Collection Settings

    Hello,
    i am evaluating Prime Infrastructure 1.2, so far i have added two devices. A router 2911 and an Catalyst 3560x, but for both devices i don't get any graphs for memory, cpu or interface utilization.
    I tried to enable Administration > System Settings > Monitoring Settings Auto Monitoring but the changes are not saved even i nice status message on the bottom right corner.
    after a refresh it's like before.
    I have an NCS as well and there i have in the background tasks Switch CPU and Memory Poll as well as Switch Interface Utilization Poll. In the Prime Infrastructure i don't have them at all. According to the Configuration Guide there should be a CAT Switch CPU and Memory Poll and a CAT Switch Interface Poll Task, but there is nothing.
    Here the Screenshot from NCS
    and here from Prime Infrastructure

    Alex, Suwa
    You can still monitor interfaces with the following workaround (which works for me):
    Under Design > Monitoring Configuration:
    From the tree on the left, expand Features > Interface Health
    If needed, select the interface parameters to poll and the polling intervals, provide a name to your template and then click "Save as new template"
    Under Deploy > Monitoring Deployment:
    Locate your template and click the green "Deploy" button
    Select which devices you want to poll, or just select a group like "Routers", Switches etc.
    That should do the trick and information should show up after few minutes.
    Hope it helps,
    Tomer
    BTW- you can also perform the same for device health, by using "Device Health" Metrics template under "Design".

  • Old visa open, error code 1073807343, using VISA with a GPIB device, and VISA resource names

    Hi everyone,
    I'm trying to get a SRS model SR720 LCR meter (manual on this page) working with LabView, connecting it to my PC with an Agilent 82357A GPIB/USB interface (manual on this page). I'm running MAX version 14.0, and NI-VISA version 14.0. I'm running LabView version 13.0f2, 32 bit.
    I followed the directions on this page, and I'm pretty confident I can communicate with my LCR meter, because I can go to NI MAX->GPIB0::17::INSTR under "devices and interfaces", then go to the VISA test panel, go to the I/O tab, and I can enter a few commands from the SR720 manual, like changing the frequency, and I see the light on the LCR meter change to what I just told it to do. Here is a picture, just to illustrate it:
    Also, if I do the *IDN? command, it returns "
    9: Write Operation (*IDN?)
    Return Count: 5 bytes
    10: Read Operation
    Return Count: 41 bytes
    StanfordResearchSystems,SR720,08087,1.03\n
     So, that's good too. I also made the alias of this device "MyLCRmeter", but that shouldn't matter for now.
    Now I'm trying to get it to work in a more usable way. The SR7xx drivers that LabView found for me came with a couple sample programs, one called "Getting Started.vi". I tried to just simply see if it worked, changing the "instrument descriptor" field to "GPIB0::17::INSTR", since that's the one that seemed to be the right device in MAX. Here is a picture of the front panel of "Getting Started.vi":
    Trying to run it like this gave me this error (code -1073807343):
    Old VISA Open in SR715/720 Initialize.vi->SR715/720 Getting Started.vi
    Doing a bit of searching on these forums, I found these few threads (1 2 3), which seem to tell me that, since this program was written, the way you open VISA has changed. In the 2nd of those links, one guy said:
    You just have to replace the Old VISA Open function with the VISA Open that is on the Instrument I/O>VISA>VISA Advanced palette. When you do that, the wire to the string that was used for the resource name will be broken. Delete the string and make the actual VISA Resource Name visible on the front panel. Wire the VISA Resource Name control to the connector pane where the string control was (upper left connection).
    So, I went into the sub-VI Initialize.vi, and did that. Here is a picture of what the front panel and block diagram of the sub-VI Initialize2.vi (I changed the name in case I screwed things up, but I'm pretty sure the new one is the one being called by Getting Started.vi) looked like before I changed anything (you can see the Old VISA Open):
    and here it is after replacing that with the regular VISA Open, deleting the instrument descriptor string and replacing it with a VISA resource, and connecting that to the VISA Open:
    However, as you can see in the image above, and it seems like someone else had this problem in the 2nd thread linked above, I don't see my device listed in the drop-down menu (even if I refresh), only "LPT1" (I don't even know what that is):
    No, I wasnt able to select the visa resource from the pull down menu. somehow it seems disabled or something.
     If I just enter the VISA resource name from MAX manually, GPIB0::17::INSTR, and save and try running that, I get the error(code -1073807346):
    VISA Open in SR715/720 Initialize2.vi->SR715/720 Getting Started.vi
    So I'm not sure where to go from there, or why it's not in the drop down menu to begin with. I'm sorry if I've missed something but I've searched about as far as I can go. If I had to guess, maybe one thing could be that in MAX, under Tools->NI-VISA->VISA Options->My System->Conflict manager, I have both Agilent VISA and NI VISA enabled; I know sometimes problems arise from conflicts between different software fighting over the same hardware. Is this okay, or do I need to change it?
    Thank you and please let me know if there is any other code/screenshots I could provide that could help!

    Hi, I did indeed enable NiVisaTulip.dll under MAX->Tools->NI-VISA->VISA Options->My system->Passports->List of passports. Sorry, I should have mentioned that explicitly.
    By install as primary, do you just mean as it is here, where it is selected as the "Preferred VISA"?
    Or somewhere else? I installed NI-VISA first I believe, and then the Agilent one, and during the installation of the Agilent one, I'm pretty sure I made it not the primary. Here's what I have in the Agilent (it's called Keysight now) Connection Expert software:
    I also have this under the "Keysight 488 options" tab:
    Should that be checked? I don't actually know the role of VISA vs 488 here...
    What could I try?
    Thank you!

    Mail is backed up automatically. If you make backups automatically, open Mail application and then, open the Time Machine app (in /Applications/Utilities). You will access to the Time Machine interface, and you will be able to see all your mails of all the backups you have, and you will be able to restore them. It means that your mails are backed up onto the Time Capsule

    My external device is having male USB connector. The cable available in market are having can be plugged to the device having female connector.I will need converter in between as my device is having male connector. Can i get such cable? If yes can i establish communication in between my app and device over these cables.I am not passing any audio/video data or photos.I am sending data frames. My device is having firmware and it sends data frames in firmware understandable format. Let me know can i have two way communication in between over USB/BT?
    Right now i am connecting my device with host PC and i want to replace my host PC with ipad.

    Thanks....
    will it be possible to establish communication in between my device and app. Because camera conection kit only transfers photos and videos and my device doesnt have any audio/video data.
    If yes, should i add photo header to my frames and will send as corrupted photo file or what needs to implement so that i can have sound communication in between.

  • A quick primer on audio drivers, devices, and latency

    This information has come from Durin, Adobe staffer:
    Hi everyone,
    A  common question that comes up in these forums over and over has to do  with recording latency, audio drivers, and device formats.  I'm going to  provide a brief overview of the different types of devices, how they  interface with the computer and Audition, and steps to maximize  performance and minimize the latency inherent in computer audio.
    First, a few definitions:
    Monitoring: listening to existing audio while simultaneously recording new audio.
    Sample: The value of each individual bit of audio digitized by the audio  device.  Typically, the audio device measures the incoming signal 44,100  or 48,000 times every second.
    Buffer Size: The  "bucket" where samples are placed before being passed to the  destination.  An audio application will collect a buffers-worth of  samples before feeding it to the audio device for playback.  An audio  device will collect a buffers-worth of samples before feeding it to the  audio device when recording.  Buffers are typically measured in Samples  (command values being 64, 128, 512, 1024, 2048...) or milliseconds which  is simply a calculation based on the device sample rate and buffer  size.
    Latency: The time span that occurs between  providing an input signal into an audio device (through a microphone,  keyboard, guitar input, etc) and when each buffers-worth of that signal  is provided to the audio application.  It also refers to the other  direction, where the output audio signal is sent from the audio  application to the audio device for playback.  When recording while  monitoring, the overall perceived latency can often be double the device  buffer size.
    ASIO, MME, CoreAudio: These are audio driver models, which simply specify the manner in which an audio application and audio device communicate.  Apple Mac systems use CoreAudio almost exclusively which provides for low buffer sizes and the ability  to mix and match different devices (called an Aggregate Device.)  MME  and ASIO are mostly Windows-exclusive driver models, and provide  different methods of communicating between application and device.  MME drivers allow the operating system itself to act as a go-between and  are generally slower as they rely upon higher buffer sizes and have to  pass through multiple processes on the computer before being sent to the  audio device.  ASIO drivers provide an audio  application direct communication with the hardware, bypassing the  operating system.  This allows for much lower latency while being  limited in an applications ability to access multiple devices  simultaneously, or share a device channel with another application.
    Dropouts: Missing  audio data as a result of being unable to process an audio stream fast  enough to keep up with the buffer size.  Generally, dropouts occur when  an audio application cannot process effects and mix tracks together  quickly enough to fill the device buffer, or when the audio device is  trying to send audio data to the application more quickly than it can  handle it.  (Remember when Lucy and Ethel were working at the chocolate  factory and the machine sped up to the point where they were dropping  chocolates all over the place?  Pretend the chocolates were samples,  Lucy and Ethel were the audio application, and the chocolate machine is  the audio device/driver, and you'll have a pretty good visualization of  how this works.)
    Typically, latency is not a problem if  you're simply playing back existing audio (you might experience a very  slight delay between pressing PLAY and when audio is heard through your  speakers) or recording to disk without monitoring existing audio tracks  since precise timing is not crucial in these conditions.  However, when  trying to play along with a drum track, or sing a harmony to an existing  track, or overdub narration to a video, latency becomes a factor since  our ears are far more sensitive to timing issues than our other senses.   If a bass guitar track is not precisely aligned with the drums, it  quickly sounds sloppy.  Therefore, we need to attempt to reduce latency  as much as possible for these situations.  If we simply set our Buffer  Size parameter as low as it will go, we're likely to experience dropouts  - especially if we have some tracks configured with audio effects which  require additional processing and contribute their own latency to the  chain.  Dropouts are annoying but not destructive during playback, but  if dropouts occur on the recording stream, it means you're losing data  and your recording will never sound right - the data is simply lost.   Obviously, this is not good.
    Latency under 40ms is  generally considered within the range of reasonable for recording.  Some  folks can hear even this and it affects their ability to play, but most  people find this unnoticeable or tolerable.  We can calculate our  approximate desired buffer size with this formula:
    (Sample per second / 1000) * Desired Latency
    So,  if we are recording at 44,100 Hz and we are aiming for 20ms latency:   44100 / 1000 * 20 = 882 samples.  Most audio devices do not allow  arbitrary buffer sizes but offer an array of choices, so we would select  the closest option.  The device I'm using right now offers 512 and 1024  samples as the closest available buffer sizes, so I would select 512  first and see how this performs.  If my session has a lot of tracks  and/or several effects, I might need to bump this up to 1024 if I  experience dropouts.
    Now that we hopefully have a pretty  firm understanding of what constitutes latency and under what  circumstances it is undesirable, let's take a look at how we can reduce  it for our needs.  You may find that you continue to experience dropouts  at a buffer size of 1024 but that raising it to larger options  introduces too much latency for your needs.  So we need to determine  what we can do to reduce our overhead in order to have quality playback  and recording at this buffer size.
    Effects: A  common cause of playback latency is the use of effects.  As your audio  stream passes through an effect, it takes time for the computer to  perform the calculations to modify that signal.  Each effect in a chain  introduces its own amount of latency before the chunk of audio even  reaches the point where the audio application passes it to the audio  device and starts to fill up the buffer.  Audition and other DAWs  attempt to address this through "latency compensation" routines which  introduce a bit more latency when you first press play as they process  several seconds of audio ahead of time before beginning to stream those  chunks to the audio driver.  In some cases, however, the effects may be  so intensive that the CPU simply isn't processing the math fast enough.   With Audition, you can "freeze" or pre-render these tracks by clicking  the small lightning bolt button visible in the Effects Rack with that  track selected.  This performs a background render of that track, which  automatically updates if you make any changes to the track or effect  parameters, so that instead of calculating all those changes on-the-fly,  it simply needs to stream back a plain old audio file which requires  much fewer system resources.  You may also choose to disable certain  effects, or temporarily replace them with alternatives which may not  sound exactly like what you want for your final mix, but which  adequately simulate the desired effect for the purpose of recording.   (You might replace the CPU-intensive Full Reverb effect with the  lightweight Studio Reverb effect, for example.  Full Reverb effect is  mathematically far more accurate and realistic, but Studio Reverb can  provide that quick "body" you might want when monitoring vocals, for  example.)  You can also just disable the effects for a track or clip  while recording, and turn them on later.
    Device and Driver Options: Different  devices may have wildly different performance at the same buffer size  and with the same session.  Audio devices designed primarily for gaming  are less likely to perform well at low buffer sizes as those designed  for music production, for example.  Even if the hardware performs the  same, the driver mode may be a source of latency.  ASIO is almost always  faster than MME, though many device manufacturers do not supply an ASIO  driver.  The use of third-party, device-agnostic drivers, such as  ASIO4ALL (www.asio4all.com) allow you to wrap an MME-only device inside a  faux-ASIO shell.  The audio application believes it's speaking to an  ASIO driver, and ASIO4ALL has been streamlined to work more quickly with  the MME device, or even to allow you to use different inputs and  outputs on separate devices which ASIO would otherwise prevent.
    We  also now see more USB microphone devices which are input-only audio  devices that generally use a generic Windows driver and, with a few  exceptions, rarely offer native ASIO support.  USB microphones generally  require a higher buffer size as they are primarily designed for  recording in cases where monitoring is unimportant.  When attempting to  record via a USB microphone and monitor via a separate audio device,  you're more likely to run into issues where the two devices are not  synchronized or drift apart after some time.  (The ugly secret of many  device manufacturers is that they rarely operate at EXACTLY the sample  rate specified.  The difference between 44,100 and 44,118 Hz is  negligible when listening to audio, but when trying to precisely  synchronize to a track recorded AT 44,100, the difference adds up over  time and what sounded in sync for the first minute will be wildly  off-beat several minutes later.)  You are almost always going to have  better sync and performance with a standard microphone connected to the  same device you're using for playback, and for serious recording, this  is the best practice.  If USB microphones are your only option, then I  would recommend making certain you purchase a high-quality one and have  an equally high-quality playback device.  Attempt to match the buffer  sizes and sample rates as closely as possible, and consider using a  higher buffer size and correcting the latency post-recording.  (One  method of doing this is to have a click or clap at the beginning of your  session and make sure this is recorded by your USB microphone.  After  you finish your recording, you can visually line up the click in the  recorded track with the click in the original track by moving your clip  backwards in the timeline.  This is not the most efficient method, but  this alignment is the reason you see the clapboards in behind-the-scenes  filmmaking footage.)
    Other Hardware: Other  hardware in your computer plays a role in the ability to feed or store  audio data quickly.  CPUs are so fast, and with multiple cores, capable  of spreading the load so often the bottleneck for good performance -  especially at high sample rates - tends to be your hard drive or storage  media.  It is highly recommended that you configure your temporary  files location, and session/recording location, to a physical drive that  is NOT the same as you have your operating system installed.  Audition  and other DAWs have absolutely no control over what Windows or OS X may  decide to do at any given time and if your antivirus software or system  file indexer decides it's time to start churning away at your hard drive  at the same time that you're recording your magnum opus, you raise the  likelihood of losing some of that performance.  (In fact, it's a good  idea to disable all non-essential applications and internet connections  while recording to reduce the likelihood of external interference.)  If  you're going to be recording multiple tracks at once, it's a good idea  to purchase the fastest hard drive your budget allows.  Most cheap  drives spin around 5400 rpm, which is fine for general use cases but  does not allow for the fast read, write, and seek operations the drive  needs to do when recording and playing back from multiple files  simultaneously.  7200 RPM drives perform much better, and even faster  options are available.  While fragmentation is less of a problem on OS X  systems, you'll want to frequently defragment your drive on Windows  frequently - this process realigns all the blocks of your files so  they're grouped together.  As you write and delete files, pieces of each  tend to get placed in the first location that has room.  This ends up  creating lots of gaps or splitting files up all over the disk.  The act  of reading or writing to these spread out areas cause the operation to  take significantly longer than it needs to and can contribute to  glitches in playback or loss of data when recording.

    There is one point in the above that needed a little clarification, relating to USB mics:
    _durin_ wrote:
     If  USB microphones are your only option, then I would recommend making  certain you purchase a high-quality one and have an equally high-quality  playback device.
    If you are going to spend that much, then you'd be better off putting a little more money into an  external device with a proper mic pre, and a little less money by not  bothering with a USB mic at all, and just getting a 'normal' condensor  mic. It's true to say that over the years, the USB mic class of  recording device has caused more trouble than any other, regardless.
    You  should also be aware that if you find a USB mic offering ASIO support,  then unless it's got a headphone socket on it as well then you aren't  going to be able to monitor what you record if you use it in its native  ASIO mode. This is because your computer can only cope with one ASIO device in the system - that's all the spec allows. What you can do with most ASIO hardware though is share multiple streams (if the  device has multiple inputs and outputs) between different software.
    Seriously, USB mics are more trouble than they're worth.

  • Software needed for the USB device, "USB Interface Controller TEST2.0"

    My mother recently acquired a digital camera. She acquired it from a second-hand store, which did not include an interface cable or software. The manual (and the USB port on the camera) indicates that a male-male USB cable is necessary for photos to be copied to the hard drive.
    I was not successful in locating such a cable at any local electronics store (I assume such a cable is now out-of-date). I purchased one from a seller on eBay. The brand is "e circuit electronics".
    Upon powering up the camera with the cable connected to it and the computer, the following message appeared:
    "Software needed for the USB device "USB Interface Controller TEST2.0" is not available. Would you like to look for the software on the Internet?"
    I clicked "Yes". After an approximate two-minute wait, another message appeared stating:
    "Software Update is not able to connect to the Internet. Please check your configuration and try again."
    I deleted, "Software Update Preferences" in the Preferences folder inside the System Folder, without solving the problem. How do I solve the issue of allowing Software Update to connect to the Internet?

    Thank you for your continued assistance, BDAqua. Unfortunately, the driver you linked to does not seem to be compatible with the camera. It is a driver for the V20 model, whereas my model would correspond to be a V2755, as referenced from a list of other Vivicam models when during a search at the Open Drivers web site.
    From the system requirement about the card reader you gave me, it will not work, as this system is running 9.1. I am hesistant to upgrade this computer to 9.2, as I have experienced system unstability with that version, with even the 9.2.2 update applied.
    In the mean time, I have e-mailed Vivitar regarding this issue, but have as of yet received a reply.
    I am not certain as to other specifics to give you, in order to solve the Software Update problem. Please elaborate.
    Yes eww, the computer in question is able to fully connect to the Internet for all that I need. I am fully aware of the difference between a computer connecting to the Internet, and a computer connecting to a digital camera. I have 15 years of Macintosh experience.

  • I am trying to configure my SCXI-1540 card for excitation voltage and frequency using MAX - but it is not giving me that option when I click on the card and then properties​, am I looking in the wrong place?

    I am trying to configure my SCXI-1540 w/1315 card for excitation voltage and frequency using MAX - but it is not giving me that option when I click on the card and then properties, am I looking in the wrong place?
    I have LabVIEW Express 7.0 Professional - SCXI-1000 Chassiss - along with SCXI-1112, and SCXI 1520/1314 - cable to the PCI-6052E is attached to the 1520 card.
    MAX says it recognizes all the cards in the chassiss.

    Jeremy, Thanks for the reply.
    I tried to set up the system as DAQmx.
    I had MAX auto-detect the set-up - and it recognized all the cards - but did not select the 1315 accessory on the 1540 card - I had to do that manually - but in the configuration section I would select the accessory and it would deselect itself. I had to get out of the set-up and then right click on the 1540 card and click on the "Accessories" tab and select the 1315 terminal block that way.
    It didn't seem right that the system should behave that way, but I pressed onward.
    I then tried to create a new DAQmx Task
    When I create new DAQmx task and then click on Analog Input no "Position" Tab appears for me to select, all I get are:
    Analog>>Voltage
    Analog>>Temperature
    Ana
    log>>Strain
    Analog>>Current
    Analog>>Resistance
    Analog>>Frequency
    Analog>>Custom Voltage with Excitation
    Do you think there might be something wrong with either my hardware or perhaps my configuration that is not allowing it to recognize the 1540/1315 in DAQmx?
    I had included the system report of what programs I am using, etc. as attached file nireport.txt
    After the DAQmx did not work I tried installing everything as Traditional DAQ and it did let me set-up the 1540 Card with Excitation Voltage and Frequency and gain - I then went in to the VI that I had built and tried to use the Express DAQ Assisant to read the channel that I am connected to on the 1315/1540 - when I try to use DAQ Assistant it gives me an error saying that "Device not available in NI-DAQmx. It is possible that the device is being use by traditional NI-DAQ"
    Which I guess it is since both configurations are now set-up in MAX.
    I would PREFER to use the DAQmx set-up, but I am confused as to WHY it won
    't come up with
    Analog input>>POSITION>>LVDT
    When I try to create a new DAQmx task.
    Thanks for the help so far! As you can probably tell I am new at this.

  • Error 1073807302 while connecting a third party USB device,and showing invalid setup

    While connecting a third party USB device,In NI MAX it is showing error 1073807302,Unable to start operation because setup is invalid,and error 1073807246 Object Reference is Uninitialized,in the USB settings Tab it is showing no pipe present in Bulk in pipe and in VIEW ATTRIBUTE Tab it is showing invalid property....
    please kindly reply me.....!!!

    sir,without configuring in NI-MAX how can we open a connection to VISA.
    If i install the device driver provided by supplier,i am not able to view my device in NI-MAX,so that, I had created and installed .inf file for my device using VISA driver wizard, In NI-MAX now I can see my device and its properties in visa interactive control.But it was showing some errors(Error-1073676418,error-1073807302,error-1073807298),in the USB settings Tab it is showing, "No pipe present in Bulk In-pipe", and in VIEW ATTRIBUTE Tab it is showing invalid property.In program it is showing error 1073807302,Unable to start operation because setup is invalid,and error 1073807246 Object Reference is Uninitialized,
    While Searching in ni.com, some one posted that change the USB Alternate settings to 1/2/3,default value is 0,but now also my problem is not solved.
    I am using VIATOR USB HART modem, Model 010031.

    Q: Are there differences between version 2.1 and 4.0 ?
    A: The interface has no changes from AII 2.1 to AII 4.0.

    Hi Sara,
               SAP Device Controller Interface is the interface that will be used by device controller softwares to send data to SAP AII and vice versa. Device controllers filter the RFID reads and send a unique read event to SAP AII. SAP AII on receiving this message processes it. It can be the case that as part of processing we also require to send data back to devices/controller or send a command such as tag commissioning. At this time also the same interface is used.
