Issue Details

I have DAQmx driver installed but I cannot find the DAQmx Fill In Error info VI in DAQmx function palette. Where can I find this function?

Solution

DAQmx Fill In Error Info VI is not on the palettes. It is a subVI that is generally only used within internally created DAQmx VIs to format the error info returned from a DAQmx DLL call. For example, here is that VI used in the DAQmx Create Channel VI:

However, if you want to find the VI, it is located in the DAQmx Miscellaneous.llb library which you can find at

C:\Program Files (x86)\National Instruments\[LabVIEW version]\vi.lib\DAQmx\miscellaneous.llb

Note: Depending on which DAQmx version is installed, this library location might differ.
If you have DAQmx 2022 Q3 or later installed, then the library will be located in the LVAddons directory instead of VI.lib:

C:\Program Files\NI\LVAddons\nidaqmx\1\vi.lib\DAQmx\miscellaneous.llb
