get device list show only simulated pxi card

[ge0ne]

Hi,

I'm using the DAQmx system and device property nodes to get the logical name of two PXI card, PXI-5441 and PXI-5610.

When I first ran the vi, nothing came up.

I've then added a simulated device and the logical name and physical named were retreived.

Any idea why my vi won't return the two actual cards info?

Thank you,

Olivier

Hello Olivier,

The reason that your PXI-5441 and PXI-5610 do not show up in the list of devices is because they are not DAQmx devices. You can get the same information using the niModInst Get Installed Device Attributes polymorphic VI.  Of course, you will also have to use the niModInst Open Installed Devices Session and niModInst Close Installed Devices Session VIs as well.
