I had been successfully using a VB.NET program to control the ENET-9237 to read a load cell.
I have been using DAQmx 9.4 drivers.
Things were working fine for months....
Today when I tried to use it, I could not communicate with the device. When I looked in MAX and ran the self-test I got an error indicating the device was not active.
I deleted the network device and added it again. It adds just fine and I can see system status is up, but now the self-test button is greyed out. I still cannot use my software to connect to the device. So the ethenet part seems OK, but I cannot get access to the actual load cell module.
Does this indicate a hardware failure of the 9237 module? Or is there still something in software I should try?
Solved! Go to Solution.

Turns out it was a software problem. I moved the hardware to a different computer and self-test worked fine.
I uninstalled and reinstalled the DAQmx v9.4 drivers on the computer with an issue.
Now everything works just as it should.
Not sure what went wrong with the original install...
