Strip Chart ► Support ► Enumeration

Enumeration is the process of adding or taking away a DAQ hardware reference. That reference is usually a serial number of the DAQ device.

When a hardware device is added or taken away then Strip Chart will sense it and ask what to do according to this panel:

Explanation of the options:

• Stop Acquisition: Use this to stop all data acquisition so you can figure out what to do. For instance, you may want to change hardware settings (see Devices) before starting acquisition again.

• Ignore: Use this to ignore the added or removed DAQ hardware. You can enumerate later using the enumerate button on the Device inspector editor.

• Enumerate: Use this to enumerate. Added devices are added to Strip Chart's references, removed devices are dereferenced.

If you disconnect the DAQ device you are currently sampling from you should reconnect it and click Ignore. The process of disconnecting an active device usually causes an error, for that see Hardware Failure.
