Issue Details

I'm currently trying to synchronize analog input data and XNET data in LabVIEW. On the first run, the tasks acquire data as expected, however when stopping the program, I receive: Error -1074384887 occurred at XNET Stop.vi
NI-XNET: (Hex 0xBFF63009) The board's firmware did not answer a command. Solution: Stop your application and execute a self test. Try deactivating/reactivating the driver in the Device Manager. If this problem persists, contact National Instruments.

I then am sometimes unable to communicate with the devices unless I power cycle them. Is there anything I can do to prevent this error?

Solution

When synchronizing a XNET and DAQ task, ensure that the XNET task is stopped before stopping the DAQmx task. This can be enforced through dataflow techniques in LabVIEW.
