multiple daq boards

[Chrispbrown2255]

HI,

  I am moving forward with my project thanks to help from these forums and I try not to post on here asking for help, however I can't find a clear enough answer to my latest issue.

I have multiple USB DAQ's all the same model.  However when writing my labview programs they refer to Dev2.

Is there a way through labview to either poll for connected boards, or to group DAQ's in NI MAX so that they have the same virtual name?

You can use a DAQmx property node to get a list of all installed devices. Each device has to have a unique name.

Thanks Dennis,

  It wasn't the exact solution that I was looking for, it's better :D.

Thanks for pointing me in the right direction, I found an example relating to the DAQmx property nodes (which I didn't know existed), and built from that.  Unfortunately the example I found wasn't too clear so I'll add a clearer explanation to the examples comments.
