Displaying Examples that Require a Specific Hardware Device

Use the Hardware pull-down menu to display an icon if an example uses a specific hardware device. You also can choose to display only examples that require a specific hardware device. Complete the following steps to display examples based on hardware requirements.

1. In the Hardware pull-down menu, select All devices in this menu to display an arrow icon next to the examples that require any hardware devices in the menu. You also can select a single device from the Hardware pull-down menu to display an arrow icon next to the examples that require that device.
   
   The Requirements list displays additional hardware and software that are required to run the example.
2. (Optional) Place a checkmark in the Limit results to hardware checkbox to display only examples that use the hardware you select in the Hardware pull-down menu.
3. Select Refresh hardware list from the Hardware pull-down menu to update the Hardware pull-down menu with NI-DAQ devices configured in Measurement & Automation Explorer (MAX).

Note  If selecting Refresh hardware list from the Hardware pull-down menu does not add an installed device to the Hardware pull-down menu, select Add device from the Hardware pull-down menu to add a device manually.

Select Refresh hardware list from the Hardware pull-down menu the first time you launch NI Example Finder and any time you add or remove a device to the Hardware pull-down menu.
