error -88302 occurred at self test

[Ghe]

Hi Guys

I am trying to start working with NI PCI-6036E connected to BNC-2120. I have Lab View 8.2 and DAQmx 8.6. When I try to self test or reset the device I get the following error:

"error -88302 occurred at self test". I tried disconnecting and reconnecting the card, as well as restarting the computer, but it doesn't make any difference...

I searched the forums for this particular error, but didn't find anything.

Thanks

Please read the following Knowledge Base for a possible solution

Why Is My DAQ Devices Failing the MAX Self-test or Generating Errors 88302 and 200486 in SignalExpress?

Let us know if that does not fix the issue.

Thank you Jacob

After putting up that post I read a lot about similar issues on ni.com and reinstalled DAQmx and LabView and everything was fine. LabView has a lot of subcomponents and add-ons and combined with a corrupted device database, I had a lot of things to figure out. It's all cool now 🙂

PS: last time I installed labView was ages ago, so I forgot everything.
