How to scan for available DAQ devices?

[Greg_NTI]

Hello,

my application has to generate a list of installed DAQ devices. With the tradiational DAQ library, I used the Init_DA_Brds(..) function, incremented the board number in a for loop and evaluated the returned board codes.

However, I have to switch to the DAQmx library.

What is the equivalent (or even easier) method to get all installed DAQ devices by name with the DAQmx library?

Thanks,

Greg
