Drivers for PCI 4551

[NarayananK]

These were the following troubleshooting carried out and found in the PCI 4551 S. No. 10FA31A Card

1.Installed the 7.4.1 Traditional Daq (Legacy) drivers and Max version 4.0

2.Opened Test Panel in MAX and run the start acquisition with continuous Mode Channel 0 or Channel 1 with sampling rate 52000 samples/s. During this action the PC hangs some of the time giving an error code 10800, which I found to be a time out error irrelevant to the hanging to PC.

3.Tried step 2 for various sampling rate 100 samples/s, 200 samples/s, 1000 samples/s, 10000 samples/s and 20000 samples/s , found that the same thing happens for all sampling rate.

4.Opened test Panel MAX run the start acquisition with One Shot Mode. With all sampling rate mentioned in step 3. found that the graph display is improper, i.e. graph does not display any plot, but becomes blank.

5.Uninstalled  the 7.4.1 drivers.

6.Installed the 6.9.3 Traditional Daq drivers the card is not detected in MAX.

7.The PC Configuration was a P IV with 512 MB of RAM.

Hi,

Have you seen this KB?  Although it refers to PXI DSA cards, this information has also been seen to be pertinent to PCI cards.

Instead of restarting, try shutting down your PC and have it stay off for a minute or two.  You could even try unplugging and replugging your PCI card, or switching PCI slots altogether.

Let me know if this helps solve the problem and have a great day!
