How can I read and write my own DAQ file?

[Joerg]

Hello,
I have to write a GUI to configure my PXI hardware, without MAX.
I have searched an find out, that I can change the configuration by overwriting the actual loaded DAQ file. (I find that lokation in the windows-registry)
But now my question: How can I read and write my own DAQ file?

Hello;

The only way for you to have your DAQ file is by using MAX and save the configuration to a file. In case you have the configuration beforehand, you don't even need to load MAX, you can pre-save the configuration file and copy it to the Window Registry location where the current file pointer is stored.

Hope this helps.

Hi

thanks for helping. The problem that comprised into is, that I dont know what configuration (and it´s parameters) is saved into the DAQ file.
