Reserving the cDAQ-9189 Chassis in MAX

Complete the following steps to add the cDAQ-9189 chassis to your software configuration.

  1. Launch MAX from the server computer.
  2. Right-click Devices and Interfaces and select Find Network NI-DAQmx Devices.
  3. Click Select All, then select Add Selected Devices.
  4. To determine successful installation of the chassis, right click the chassis name listed under Network Devices and select Self Test.
    When the self-test finishes, a message indicates successful verification or if an error occurred.
  5. If the chassis was not reserved automatically (indicated in MAX by the chassis icon with an X) after it was added (Add Device), you can reserve the chassis in MAX by expanding Devices and Interfaces » Network Devices, selecting the chassis, and clicking the Reserve Chassis button.
    The Override Reservation dialog box appears when you attempt to explicitly reserve a chassis. Agreeing to override the reservation forces the cDAQ chassis to be reserved by the current user.
