Embedded DAQ Configuration
Use Embedded DAQ Configuration to configure the DAQ daughterboard
in the embedded system. To launch Embedded DAQ Configuration,
right-click the embedded system and choose
NI-DAQ Configuration
from
the menu.
DAQ-related configuration includes settings such as analog input polarity
and range, analog input mode, and so on. You also can configure virtual
channels, SCXI, and DAQ accessories. You can modify these settings
through MAX or LabVIEW RT and NI-DAQ.
Locking System Configuration
After you configure the embedded system, you can lock the system
configuration with a password to prevent others on your network from
changing the configuration. In addition, a host PC on the network cannot
target LabVIEW Real-Time to the embedded system without a password
unless the host is in the RT Target: Access list.
Complete the following steps to lock the system configuration:
1.
Select your embedded system in the configuration tree and click
the
Lock/Unlock
button in the toolbar. The Locking System
Configuration dialog box appears.
2.
Enter and retype a password.
3.
Click
OK
to lock the system configuration. Your system is locked if
the
Lock/Unlock
button appears pressed.
You must click the
Lock/Unlock
button in MAX and enter the correct
password to unlock the system configuration.
