Changing serial number of virtual DAQmx in MAX

[Ray.R]

Is it possible to change attributes of a DAQmx device in MAX?  I'm sure there's a file somewhere thatconstains the info.

I created a virtual DAQmx device.  Part of the test is to handle calibration dates for devices, so I need to provide "External Calibration" information (ie: expiry date... or rather cal date and recommended interval).  This is a virtual device, I do not have the DAQmx card plugged into my PC.  

I also want to assign a serial number for the virtual device.  Actually, changing any of the attributes in the image below would be great.

Thanks!

Hello,

I am more than sure that the attributes in MAX cannot be customized for a simulated device.  If you want this flexibility just for the development stage, you have the option of creating and routing a string with the attribute’s proper syntax.  The string can take the place of a property node output.  This suggestion only holds true for attributes that you know will be accessible later when the hardware is in place.  Since I am not a 100 percent positive about customizing attributes for simulated device, I will post back if I find otherwise.
