Durden Posted April 3, 2009 Report Share Posted April 3, 2009 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. Quote Link to comment
Justin Reina Posted April 4, 2009 Report Share Posted April 4, 2009 Hello Durden, I have minimal experience with MAX, but which device is listed under the PXI2Slot2 in your MAX session? Could it be your 6070e perhaps? If it was, this would make things easy If not, what interface is the 6070e listed under? Best of Luck -Justin Quote Link to comment
Durden Posted April 4, 2009 Author Report Share Posted April 4, 2009 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! Quote Link to comment
Justin Reina Posted April 4, 2009 Report Share Posted April 4, 2009 Hello Durden, Do any error codes get thrown from your DAQmx calls, and if so where do they originate and what do they say? -Justin Quote Link to comment

Therefore, i couldn't choose my device in physical channel, is there anyway i could find it or add it? Thank you. -Durden Quote Link to comment
Justin Reina Posted April 4, 2009 Report Share Posted April 4, 2009 Again, I only have limited experience with MAX, but perhaps the DAQmx utilities don't support your device? It is kinda old, correct? Do you need to install this? http://sine.ni.com/nips/cds/view/p/lang/en/nid/14914 Let me know how it progresses, -Justin Quote Link to comment
Durden Posted April 9, 2009 Author Report Share Posted April 9, 2009 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 Link to comment
