Hi,

How can you activate the Anti-Aliasing filters on the board NI PCI 6120. Can this be done using Measurement and Automation Explorer.

Thanks.

Hi Myali123,

From the 6120 User Manual:

How do I get to NI-DAQ to use AI_Change_Parameter function. Please clarify. Is there a way to change the fliter settings through measurment and automation explorer

Sorry about that, here is what I found from MAX once a task is created:

I am able to create a task but I am not getting the device tab as in your screen shot..please elaborate on the way you arrived at this

Hi Myali,

Are you using Traditional DAQ or DAQmx to access your device?  I simulated a PCI-6120 as a DAQmx device, created an Analog Input Voltage task, and when the configuration loaded that screenshot is what I saw.

I am using a NI-DAQmx. I am attaching a screen shot. Please explain step by step.

Hello,

That is an older version of MAX compared to mine, if you update to a more current version you will be able to see what I'm seeing.  This can be done by updating a driver, which will in turn update MAX.  It may be easiest to install the current NI-VISA or another driver that is not critical to your application.  Upgrading NI-DAQmx will do the same as well.

Hi Myali,

Configuring the NI 6120's filter in the DAQ Assistant requires NI-DAQmx 8.8 or later. Here's a link to the current version of NI-DAQmx: NI-DAQmx 9.2.1.
