Deleting a Virtual Device

Complete the following steps to delete an NI Switch Executive virtual device:

1. Launch NI MAX with NI Switch Executive.
2. Expand Devices and Interfaces»NI Switch Executive Virtual Devices.
3. Right-click the NI Switch Executive virtual device you want to delete and select Delete. A dialog box opens to confirm the deletion.

   Tip To delete multiple virtual devices at one time, hold <Shift> or <Ctrl> while selecting multiple virtual devices and press <Delete>.

4. Click Yes to delete the virtual device or No to abort.

Note  When you create a new virtual device, NI Switch Executive automatically creates default IVI configurations for all NI switch modules detected in your system. If you remove an NI switch module from Devices and Interfaces or replace it with a different device, you should also remove the corresponding IVI configuration items from IVI Drivers, such as Logical Names.
