Duplicating NI-DAQmx Global Virtual Channels

To duplicate a virtual channel, complete the following steps:

1. Expand Data Neighborhood.
2. Expand NI-DAQmx Global Virtual Channels.
3. Right-click the global virtual channel you want to duplicate.
4. Select Duplicate.
5. A dialog box prompts you to select physical channels from a list of valid physical channels for the measurement type. Select the physical channels to use in the new global virtual channels. A new name is generated for each new global virtual channel, consisting of the original name with an incremented number appended to the end.
6. Click OK.

Note  Downgrading to NI-DAQmx 7.3 or earlier can cause problems with task and channel information programmatically saved to MAX. Before downgrading, open the programmatically saved task or global virtual channel in MAX and re-save it. To save the global virtual channel or task after you have loaded it, you must modify the channel or task. Then, the dialog prompts you to save the channel.
