"Retrieve Serial Number with NiDaqMx base"

[pejo64]

I have this configuration:

LabWindows 7.0
NiDaqMx base 1.4
NI USB-6009 (or NI USB-6008)

How can I retrieve the Serial Number of the USB device?

Thanks in advance for your replay

Hi, take a look at this example, I believe it performs what you need.

Hi,
I'm posting a simple example that detects s/n of a USB device.
It just uses VISA function to detect the first configurated USB resource and its serial number.

VISA functions describe USB device following this scheme:
USB[board]::vendor id:: product id::serial number[::interface number][::INSTR]
(for example USB0::0x3923::0x717B::00E07079::RAW)

Tell me if it suits your needs (or at least if it helps you! 😉
