Hi, I just installed LabView V6.1 for full development system, and it came with MAX2.2, but when i tried to open the MAX, it showed that "Unable to open a connection to the server. The configuration file, config.mxs, or the entire installation may be corrupted. Delete or rename the configuration file which is located in the same directory as nimax.exe. If that doesn't resolve the problem, please reinstall the program or search the knowledge base at ni.com for assistance. " I tried to delete or remove the config.mxs file but it didn't work, I tried to reinstall it like 4 times already, but still... I also tried all the methods on NI Solution, but none of them worked either. Therefore, i am wondering is it possible that i can try to install the different version of max, instead of the version included in the Labview 6.1. and if i could, where can i download the newer version of MAX V2.2. Or there's ohter way can solve this problem. -Durden

Hi Justin, Thanks for all of your responses. You were right about the DAQmx not supporting my DAQPad 6070E, which explains why i couldn't find it on the physical channel. I really appreciate you taking the time to answer my questions. You've been a lot of help to me :thumbup: -Lin

QUOTE (JustinReina @ Apr 3 2009, 03:22 PM) Hi Justin, I figured that i was using simulated device instead of the real device for my physical channel... but still, I could find my device in MAX under "Traditional NI-DAQ(Legacy) Device" and the test panel works fine, but not under NI-DAQ Devices. Therefore, i couldn't choose my device in physical channel, is there anyway i could find it or add it? Thank you. -Durden

Hi Justin, Yes, it is DAQpad 6070E listed under my PXI2Slot2 session, but everytime i choose PXISlot2, it doesn't really connect with the machine thank you again!

Hi, i am working on a voltage sensor project,i just touched labview for like few weeks, and i'm trying to make a vi that i can turn on the sensor, and once the sensor recieves the voltage from the machine, the vi will start saving datas, and i get to choose the location of the saved datas. The problem i'm having right now is that i don't know how to connect my DAQpad 6070E to the VI, i set it up in the MAX, but everytime i choose the physical channel, i can only choose PXI2Slot2/a0,a1,a2... i don't see my DAQpad 6070E. And how do i make the vi save data and i get to choose the location? and there's my vi below, really appreciate if somebody can look it up. thank you.
