simulate SCXI-1600 in max using daqmx 8.0.0f0

[PSpaepen]

Hello

I'm trying to simulate a SCXI chassis.  It has to contain the SCXI-1600 and a SCXI-1520 in a SCXI-1000 chassis.  I'm using LV8.0, MAX 4.0.0.3010 and Daqmx 8.0.0.0f0 (according to max). 

If no other devices are present I can not simulate this setup: the 1600 module is greyed out

If an other simulated device is present (eg PCI-6251) I can setup the chassis and 1520 module fine but only in communication with the 6251.

Since this setup is to be used by different persons, it would be convenient to create the LV progs in a simulated environment.

Does anyone now what I'm missing?

(suggestions in “NI-DAQmx 7.5 upgrade failure causes MAX seizure? “are not working for me)

I had issues trying to simulate devices with the latest version of DAQmx that was on my LV CD (Aug 2006). I downloaded the latest version and it corrected the issue. You may want to try upgrading to v8.3.0f3 (it's a big one- 575MB)

Pieter,

It is not possible to simulate a SCXI 1600 module, not even with the most recent version of NI-DAQmx. (8.3)

Good to know, but frustrating....

Do we have an ETA on this function becoming a valid option?

I too have an SCXI-1600 controlled SCXI-1000 chassis using an SCXI-1540 to record LVDT data, and I can not simulate the system.

I am able to simulate the SCXI-1600 but cannot put any of the "modules" into it, ie. SCXI-1100

and when i try to import a configuration from the computer that has the 1600 attached i get the message "SCXI-1600 import not supported" 😞

not sure what to do next...

[longzoo2]

sorry,

what i meant to say is i can simulate an SCXI-1001 and bring in an SCXI-1600  but when i try to import a configuration from the computer that has the 1600 attached i get the message "SCXI-1600 import not supported"

Add the modules to the set-up manually.

I too am having problems importing a configuration with the SCXI-1600 in it.

My client exported his full MAX config to a .nce file which I am attempting to load (I don't have access to the hardware).

I'm currently using:

 MAX  v4.5.0f0

 DAQmx  v8.8.0f2

 LV  v8.5.1

At the moment it still isn't possible to simulate the SCXI-1600 in MAX.
