niSync Initialize

[Testr00]

I have a 9189 cDAQ chassis connected to my laptop and confirmed running in MAX. When I run niSync Initialize.vi I get error -1074118552: "A failure occured while communicating with the remote device. Ensure the remote device is accessible." I've tried using a direct IP address (sync://10.34.66.85/system) instead of he device name but the same error is returned. Also tried removing the insertion of .local. Any suggestions for how to correct this? The code below comes from the example attached to https://knowledge.ni.com/KnowledgeArticleDetails?id=kA03q000000x54zCAA&l=en-US.

I'd recommend checking the firmware version of the cDAQ-9189. I believe 18.1.0 was the first version to support the NI-Sync API, but I'd recommend using the latest.

If you already have the latest firmware, could you list which versions of NI-DAQmx, NI-Sync and LabVIEW you are using?
