Hello,
 
I have a NI USB 6008 with LabVIEW 8 and NI-DAQMX Base Windows Version 1.4 on an XP PC.  I have used the 6008 before with LabVIEW 7.1 with no problems.
 
In MAX the 6008 (Dev1) works no problem, but when I try to work with the examples from NI-DAQMX 1.4 I get an error message Error -200220. It seems like it does not recognize Dev1. When I start the NI datalogger I get Error -200099 occurred at Physical channel not specified.
 
Where am I going wrong?
 
Thanks,
Willem.

Check that MAX is not configured to use the DAQmx driver instead of the
DAQmx Base driver.  You can do this by opening max, Tools >
NI-DAQmx Confgiuration > NI-DAQmx USB Driver Selection. If it says
that it is using NI-DAQmx and your program is written for mx BASE, you
will need to switch the drviers using the switch button.

Also, make sure that your program and the logger are looking for the
device name that you have programed into the program, ie, under MAX it
lists the device as Dev1 and your program is looking for Dev1.
