You cannot view programmatically saved global channels in the DAQ Assistant for versions of NI-DAQ earlier than 7.4. To view a programmatically saved global channel in an earlier version of NI-DAQ, first use the DAQ Assistant in NI-DAQ 7.4 or later to save the global channel.

Visit the DAQmx Professional Developer Tools Web site for more information and examples of programmatically saving global channels.
