How to use DAQmxbase write with the usb-6008?

I get the error message

"Error -200428 occurred at Value passed to the Task/Channels In control is invalid.

This error code is undefined. No one has provided a description for this code, or you might have wired a number that is not an error code to the error code input."

I have set up a task with the daqmxbaseconfig as an AO channel and typed in the right name at the task/channel terminal .
I used create constant to get the right kind of constant. I just dont get whats wrong, i have used MAX with other io-cards before and never had this kind of problem.

I just want to put a voltage out on AO0 and/or AO1 to see it all working.

Hi,

It can be quite frustrating to program using the DAQmxBase driver. Beaware, that this is just a temporary driver. The next release of the DAQmx driver will include the usb-600x series.

When this is said, you should be able to use the driver. To make sure that the device is working use one of the examples found by pressing the windows start button > Programs > National Instruments > DAQmxBase > Examples > LabVIEW.
The examples will give you a good starting point.

Also I would make sure that I had the newest version of the driver installed. Following link will provide that for you:

Let me know if this doesnt solve your problem.
