Setup Troubleshooting

Symptoms and Actions

Data input or output does not operate correctly
- Run the front panel software to check that the device is registered and whether any initialization
errors have occurred.
- Is there a problem with the device settings, wiring, or similar? Check the input range, input
impedance, band width, input coupling and offset setting. Also, the input data will be undefined if
the wiring terminals are not connected. Ensure that the channels you are using are correctly
connected. Connect unused channels to analog ground.
- For voltage input, check by connecting a battery or similar if you do not have any other suitable
signal source. Also check that connecting to analog ground reads correctly as 0V.
The board works with the front panel software but not with an application.
The front panel software is coded with API-DIG(WDM) functions. As long as the board operates with
the front panel software, it is to operate with other applications as well. In such cases, review your
program while paying attention to the following points:
- Check the return values of the API functions.
- Refer to the source code for the sample programs.
The OS won't normally get started or detect the device.
Refer to the "Troubleshooting" section of API-DIG(WDM) HELP.
