Labview not executing AO NI MAX task

[LP_glasgow]

Hi there,

I have previously had no issues with running this VI, but now I am haivng issues running an NI max task to output a voltage signal to a voice coil.

If I run the task through NI max I have no issues and the DAQ outputs the correct voltages. However, when I run the same task in labview I get a "not executed" message outside of the main loop for the NImax task. I have tried both calling the specific NI max task and building it within labview but they both have the same result.

I am also aware that the rest of the code is very messy- I inherited it from someone. But this task has been previously running fine and I cannot tell what I have changed... probably a good time to start making more use of version control.

Thanks

Your VI does not run the same task from NI MAX but creates a new task programmatically. Check if the Alias name is the same in NI MAX. How Do I Find or Modify My Device's Name?

If you want to run the tasks that you configured in NI MAX in LabVIEW, you can wire the Task directly to the NI-DAQmx Start VI. See Create Tasks for NI-DAQmx Devices in LabVIEW
