Configuring PXI remote system with cDAQ

Hi,

 

I'm having some trouble configuring a PXI-8184 that reads from a cDAQ-9188 chasis (using MAX).

I see the PXI-8184 on my Remote System and I see the cDAQ-9188 on My System->Devices and Interfases->Network devices. The thing is that I want to see the cDAQ-9188 on the Network devices of my Remote System, since the RT target will be running alone. I'm not able to add a Network Device->VISA TCP/IP Resource, using Auto-detect of LAN Instrument or Manual Entry of LAN Instruments.

 

All devices (cDAQ and PXI) are connected to the host computer via a Router, using Static IP Address on the same network.

 

I want to say that it's my first time using PXI and Real-Time Development Option, so maybe I'm looking at it the wrong way.

The cDAQ-9188 chassis has four NI-9236 acquiring several strain gages.

 

I would appreciate your help.

 

Regards.

 

Gustavo

Thank you Mauro. However I found out that cDAQ device is not compatible with the RT OS.
