DIAdem dac combined with NI PCIe 6259 doesn't send out data

[YvesT]

Hi,

I have a NI PCIe 6259 card & DIAdem 11.2.0 (2010 version) on a windows 7 PC.

Analog inputs & analog + digital outputs are configurated in MAX 9.8.0f0. (Global virtual channels)

When I run a dac, analog inputs works perfect.

Both analog and digital outputs doesn't work. Only one of the four analog outputs give out the value which was send out.

In the past I had the same problems with this DIAdem version in combination with a thirth party USB card, but this was solved by new firmware & software drivers.

Someone who had similar problems?

Thanks.

Hi Yves,

does this also happen when you use the Testpanels in MAX?

Just select the device and on the right side on the top there should be a button for Testpanel. There you can test all different measurements.

Did this device ever worked with another Software for example LabVIEW?

Thanks, RMathews

Hello,

I Tried the testpanel. Both analog and digital outputs works correctly.

I have no experience with labview. So this card isn't tested with labview.

One time the digital outputs works with DIAdem, mostly it didn't work. Analog outputs are OK.

GfsDAQ driver version is 11.2.0.

I suppose that this has caused by driver problems.

After trying many things, I finally found the solution.

In the output driver box ==> driver options ==> "weighting the digital buses" must be checked.
