16 channels AT-MIO-16E-10 - error -10007

[pgandhi]

Hello people,

         I am using a AT-MIO-16E-10 DAQ card (ISA) on P3 - 501 MHz. A person before me had created an application to acquire data from 13 channels, however it is not working at the moment. The program used to be on an older machine with LabVIEW 5.1 and a older version of DAQ drivers. Right now I am running DAQ 7.4.4

The application does not give error if I write channels "0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7". However if I increase any more number of channels it gives me error -10007 occurred at AI control. NI-DAQ LV: A channel, port, or counter is out of range for the device type or device configuration; or the combination of channels is not allowed...

However, I can see this same program working on an older computer with LabVIEW 5.1 with channels as high as 0 to 12

I cannot figure out what is wrong. Is it the fact that I am running it on LabVIEW 8 now? or because the DAQ version changed.

The problem sounds like you have specified the channel configuration as differential (or did not specify single-ended). As the specs say, you only have 8 differential channels. When in differential mode, channels 8-15 are paired with channels 0-7. You use the AI Config function to set the type of connection.

Hey Dennis,

Thanks a lot!!! You were right. I went inside the MAX, and inside the properties of the card, it was set to take "differential" input. I set it to the analog input and the program works great now!
