Enter a “Device Name” in the text box, or use the default, e.g., DaqBoard2K0. The Name is for identifying the
specific DaqBoard, but actually refers to the PCI slot.

Verify that the “Device Type” shows the correct board, e.g., “DaqBoard/1000, DaqBoard/2001, etc.”
Note that available device types can be viewed via the pull-down list.

Confirm that the DaqBoard’s text box shows a Bus #, Slot #, and Serial Number.
If this text box is empty, use its pull-down list and select the serial number that matches the one for your board.
