Issue Details

I have an SCXI Chassis connected to an X-Series USB DAQ Mass Termination (USB-63xx), however when I try to configure the system in NI Measurement and Automation Explorer (NI-MAX) my SCXI devices appear with red x's and fail both reset and self test. Why can I not configure these devices properly in MAX?  

Solution

The USB X-Series DAQ Devices (USB-63xx) are only compatible with SCXI with versions of DAQmx 17.5 or earlier. If you have a version later than this please uninstall DAQmx and reinstall a compatible version.

 

Additional Information

This incompatibility does not affect the PCI(e)/PXI(e) X-Series counterparts of the USB-63xx devices mentioned above.
