NI-DAQMx Base Digital Output Power up state

[BattelleV]

I am using NI-DAQMx Base 2.x under Linux for programming. 

We have got multiple analog inputs, an analog output and a few digital outputs.

A problem that I noticed is that initially the board is at high impedance on the digital outputs.

When I start an analog input task, the board digital outputs go low. My devices are active low so this is a problem. I know we can use MX explorer in windows to program the  EEPROM on the device, but if I am just using daqmx base is there something else I can do? I know they can be reprogrammed using DAQmx... but my specific question is for mx base in linux.

Hi BattelleV,

Thank you for your post!  Unfortunately, we have not implemented this functionality with NI-DAQmx Base.  We do have a version of NI-DAQmx for certain distros of Linux, and certain hardware supported.  

I would recommend including a digital task in your program, and force your digital outputs HIGH before starting your analog input task.  Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, let me know if I can be of further assistance.
