Exporting Virtual Channel Data to a Text File

Primary Software: Utility Software>>Measurement & Automation Explorer
Primary Software Version: 3.1
Primary Software Fixed Version: N/A
Secondary Software: LabVIEW Development Systems

Problem: I have many virtual channels configured in Measurement & Automation Explorer (MAX). I would like to export a list of these virtual channels and the details of these channels to a text file. I noticed that this is not an option in MAX. Is this possible using LabVIEW?

Solution: Yes. This can be accomplished by using the Get DAQ Channel Names VI and the Get Channel Information VI. First, use the Get DAQ Channel Names VI to retrieve an array containing a list of all the virtual channels configured on the machine. Second, use the array of channel names with the Get Channel Information VI to retrieve the individual details of each virtual channel. See the example program attached below.
