Common Questions
This appendix lists common questions related to the use of the SCXI-1502.
Which version of NI-DAQ works with the SCXI-1502, and how do I get
the most current version of NI-DAQ?
You must have NI-DAQ 8.1 or later. Visit the NI Web site at
ni.com
and
select
Download Software»Drivers and Updates»Search Drivers and
Updates
. Enter the keyword
NI-DAQ
to find the latest version of NI-DAQ
for your operating system.
I cannot correctly test and verify that my SCXI-1502 is working. What
should I do?
Unfortunately, there is always the chance that one or more components in
the system are not operating correctly. You may have to call or email a
technical support representative. The technical support representative often
suggests troubleshooting measures. If requesting technical support by
phone, have the system nearby so you can try these measures immediately.
NI contact information is listed in the
Technical Support Information
document.
In NI-DAQmx, can I use channels of different measurement types in
the same task?
Yes.
Does MAX allow me to configure two SCXI-1502 modules that are in
the same chassis in the multiplexed mode with two different E/M Series
DAQ devices?
No.
Can I use the unused analog input channels of the E/M Series DAQ
device if I am directly cabled to the SCXI-1502, for example with the
SCXI-1180 feedthrough?
No. E/M Series DAQ device channels 1 through 7 are not available when
directly connected to the SCXI-1502.
