Error 89120 with Simulated Chassis

[KurtzC1]

Hey Everyone!

So I am trying to simulate the NI-9189 Ethernet Chassis with one NI9205. The issue I am having is every time is I run the VI it throws an “89120” error and I can't run the rest of the code. I know this error comes from the task not being setup correctly. I thought I set it up properly, because I configured my task in NIMAX and verified that LabVIEW was reading the simulated card, by using a DAQmx Device Property Node. This is shown in the image with a red square. Specifically I followed this tutorial. http://www.ni.com/tutorial/3698/en/ 

Attached is an image of my code. I am also new to LabVIEW so please be gentle.  

Thanks for the help!

You are also new to the Forums, where we beg beginners to attach your code (would you like to help debug a C++ program with only a picture of a listing of the code that you'd need to squint to read, and have to type in yourself to test or modify?).  The Picture is nice to let you show us what you think the problem might be, but we need the code to "see for ourselves", to test, to experiment, to "find the bug" ...

You can't do that!   Create a simulated 9189 and populate it with simulated devices.  A single cDAQ simulated Device simply does not have the resources of a simulated 8 slot cDAQ Chassis

Hi Bob, 

Thanks for the reply. Sorry I thought I attached the code, but only attached the image. I attached the code to this message. I am sure there are other problems with the code other than the simulated device issue.

I just can't debug them until I solve this. 

Thanks

You do realize that there is a "Thing" called a DAQmx Scale?  look it up

Jeff, thank you for the reply.

I think I misspoke earlier. I an trying to simulate the NI-9189 Ethernet Chassis with one simulated NI-9205 in the first slot. 

Thanks

Jeff, 

I was not aware of DAQmx Scale. I guess I can build my scale into the task and simply things. 

Thanks

I found the issue. I was an idiot and wired a string into DAQmx Sample Clock.
