Whenever I try to perform an analog output (even using the standard examples) with the following DAQ board (6024E), I get the following error message.
Error 10403 "The specified device does not support the requested action (the driver recognises the device, but the action is inappropriate for the device)"
I also get this when I try and acquire data using the intermediate vi's.
I therefore have 2 problems (analog input and output).
The only way I can capture data is to use the simple AI Waveforms VI, and set it to software triggering so it uses conditional retierval. If I then set out my own Intermediate Vi's and try to use analog triggering, or even software (conditional retrieval), I also get the above message for analog triggering, or this message when trying to set conditional retrieval... Error 10688 " The number of total scans and pretrigger scans implies that a triggered start is intended, but triggering is not enabled." !! This is because i'm trying to to a conditional retrieval and trigger should be off ?!! shouldn't it.
As far as i can see, I have set up my intermediate vi's, in the same way as the simple vi, to capture 3 channels of waveform data (Labview 6i), but It doesn't work.
Anyway, to cut a long story short, why do I get these error messages? All I want to do is set up an acquisition using the intermediate vi's either with proper analog triggering (i don't see why I can't use this), or conditional retrival triggering form memory.
I am using the DAQ 6024E 12-bit card, along with the BNC break out box.
One other question. When I get this all up and running, will I be able to continually output a set voltage level (that changes every 2 mins), whilst continually acquiring data on another input channel?
I have produced all of my other VI for the rest of my program, as they all involve analysis on a data set along with file saves and user interface menu bars etc..., so up until now, I have just used one set of data captured ages ago with simple 'AI Waveforms', to work with. But now I have come back to this annoying AI/AO problem.
Any help will be appreciated,
