Jeff Plotzke Posted March 16, 2007 Report Posted March 16, 2007 I'm trying to programmatically find a SCXI chassis' associated DAQ Device -- I have a PXI system with a SCXI chassis connected to a PXI-6220 M-Series DAQ card. Given a SCXI Module name like "SC1Mod1" from MAX, I'd like to be able to determine that that SCXI Module's chassis is connected to PXI1Slot9 (The PXI-6220 DAQ). I've tried the 'DAQmx Device' property node (I've attached a screenshot of my code), and it returns that it's a SCXI module, but my way to trick it into telling me the connected PXI module fails with 0. (And for some reason, some of my actual PXI cards get this property to return 0 as well) Has anyone programmatically done this? Thanks for your help! Quote
Maca Posted March 25, 2009 Report Posted March 25, 2009 Have you had any luck yet Jeff, I am trying to do a very similar thing: Get an device reference for the digitizer card attached to a SCXI-1520. Quote
Neville D Posted March 25, 2009 Report Posted March 25, 2009 I seem to remember trying something similar that a few years ago, but I wasn't able to make it work either. It had something to do with the fact that some modules are smarter than others (i.e. you can query certain information while with simpler modules you can't). Maybe a quick call to NI is in order? N.

Maca Posted March 31, 2009 Report Posted March 31, 2009 I have started a thread on the dark side ( http://forums.ni.com/ni/board/message?boar...thread.id=47531 ). I will update this thread when I get an answer. Quote
