created a test fixture years ago using cDAQ modules. Some of the documentation has been lost through the moving of the manufacturing location from USA to UK.
I would like to determine what cDAQ modules are installed, the channel configurations and channel names.
Manufacturing is not familiar with the construction of the test fixture, so they are not much help.
They did send me the NI MAX report file, but it has only information on the one Aout channel. Is there a file that I could have them copy and send me that would list the cDAQ information that I need?

The NI MAX report describes the hardware, i.e., the cDAQ modules that are available.
If you created DAQmx tasks in NI MAX, you can export/import them through configuration files - https://knowledge.ni.com/KnowledgeArticleDetails?id=kA03q000000YHceCAG&l=en-US
If you created DAQmx tasks in the code, you need the actual code to understand the channels and their configuration.

Could you create a small program that you can run on the PC with the attached cDAQs?
You could just make a one-VI program that runs a DAQmx system node and extracts and saves information from it:
