Hi cjp1,

The KnowledgeBase article Programmtic PXI Slot Detection walks you through the steps to do this. There is also a community example called Read PXI an PXIe Card Serial Numbers Programatically that demonstrates the type of LabVIEW architecture you can use to do it. 

You should first ensure that all of your modules can be identified and self-test in MAX. 

In case the above hyperlinks don't work, you can copy-paste the addresses below:
