Error -70038 occurred at Read Position.flx

I am suddenly starting to get this error as I start my VI.  Any ideas?

Error -70038 occurred at Read Position.flx

Possible reason(s):

Motion:  An unexpected error has occurred internal to the driver.  Please contact National Instruments with the name of the function or VI that returned this error.

CAL_VG,

What version of the Motion Driver are you using and what version of LabVIEW do you have?

Thanks,

I have the same problem, Error -70136 occurred at Read Position.flx

It appears to happen when the motor starts off in the opposite direction from the previous move.

I'm using driver 5.1.1, any ideas ?

LabVIEW 6.1

I am using Labview 7.1.1 and Motion 7.4.0.3002

CAL_VG,

Generally, this is caused by a corrupt driver or firmware installation. Several things to try are:

• Upgrade to the latest version of the NI-Motion driver and update the firmware on the Motion controller.
  
  
• Make sure that you have no NI Motion hardware connected to your computer during the installation of NI-Motion. If the controller was connected during installation, turn off the computer, remove the board, and uninstall NI-Motion. Next, manually backup and then remove the Data folder for Measurement and Automation Explorer (normally C:\Program Files\National Instruments\MAX\Data) . Then reinstall NI-Motion, turn off the computer, and connect the board again.

Thanks,
Luke H
