remove custom scaling DAQmx

What I am working on is a calibration VI so that a user may come up with scales for different channels in their DAQ tasks which they create in MAX. When I start my VI, I create a copy of the existing task from MAX because that task includes the channels to calibrate. But, in creating this copy, my virtual task includes the scaling. I want to remove this so I get raw voltages. How can I do this?

 

Essentially I want to programmatically set <No Scale> the same way you can in MAX.

 

My not-so-valid attempt. I was hoping "no scale" was a custom scale.

Hi,

 

what happens when you create a new scale (essentially a simple linear scale will do) that you apply to each channel?

Best regards,

I actually have tried that and it seemed like it didn't work. But I will try again. I tried just to make a scale that went by increments of 1. I was somewhat rushed so I may have had something set up wrong, but from what I remember the data was still being scaled.

I think what I'll do is get the physical channels from the task and create virtual channels based off of those which will have no scaling.
