get ivi class for module

[ASTDan]

Hello,

Is there a way to query what IVI class the PXI module is installed in a specified slot in LabVIEW?

For example I specify "PXI1Slot2" in a string .  I want to know what type of instrument is installed in that slot so  I can use the appropiate driver (i.e. Power supply, DMM, etc)

Thanks

Dan

Hello Dan,

Take a look at this KnowledgeBase article which mentions how to programmatically determine what DAQ devices are in your system.  I'm not sure if this will work for all devices but it is a good place to start.  There is also this article which mentions how to determine which NI hardware is on the system as well.  Let me know if you experience any problems.

Regards,
