Can I programmatically save “virtual channels” with NI-DAQmx?
With NI-DAQmx 7.4 and later, you can programmatically create and save tasks, global virtual channels, and scales. The programmatically saved objects appear in MAX, and you can use them in the DAQ Assistant and in your applications. Programmatically saving tasks, channels, and scales simplifies system configuration and deployment to multiple locations and reduces the chance for error and need for debugging. To learn more about how to use this feature and to see examples, visit the NI-DAQmx Professional Tools tutorial at ni.com/dataacquisition/nidaqmx.
