Simulating Channel Signals

Hello All!!

 

I am developing some data aquasition software that is working with DAQmx.  The hardware I am using is the NI cDAQ-9178 chassis with various modules.  The module I am currently setting up and working with in my software is the NI 9205 Voltage Analog module.  Currently I am using MAX to simulate the chassis with all the modules.  What I want to do is simulate some signals from this virtual hardware for my software to use.  Problem is that I do not know how to accomplish this.  Is there a way to generate some signals as a simulation? Or do I have to actually have the real proper hardware installed to generate some signals? Or is it best to create a custom signal generator of some kind for my software to couple to?  If this is what I need to do I will do it but was hoping to use MAX to accomplish this cause its a more realistic simulation if you will.  Thanks for any help you guys dish out!!

 

Cheers!

If you try to aquire using a simulated device the data that comes in is just a sine wave with some noise.
