self-test VI for PCI-6071E that replicates self-test in MAX

Is there a VI available somewhere which can do this?
Is there documentation available that describes what the self-test in MAX is doing, from which I could create a VI?
If no and no, what would you do to test a DAQmx card for functionality without making external connections (ie not connecting an AO to an AI or a DO to a DI)?

GerTheDwarf,

There is no VI available that executes exactly as the Self-Test in MAX. Instead I recommend trying the DAQmx Device Property Node. This can be found in the Functions Pallet >> Measurement I/O >> NI-DAQmx >> Advanced >> System Setup >> Device Node.

This will return all the properties associated with the selected device and will show if the hardware is communicating with the drivers correctly.

Please let me know if this would be helpful for you application.
