Looks like the Serial Number Property Node is broken for PXI-6651,52,53 but it is good for a PXI-6682.

Hello,I want to retrieve the serial number for some Timing and Sychronization PXI cards.Specifically the PXI-6651, PXI-6652, PXI-6653, PXI-6682.I have tried using both DAQmx and niSync Property nodes on these cards.The property nodes works for the PXI-6682 but not the other three cards.I am using LV 8.5.1 on a desktop with MXI exrpess cards connected to PXI-1045 chassis which house the T&S cards.

Anybody have any ideas?McKevin.<img src="file:///C:/DOCUME%7E1/admin/LOCALS%7E1/Temp/moz-screenshot-1.jpg" alt=""> <img src="file:///C:/DOCUME%7E1/admin/LOCALS%7E1/Temp/moz-screenshot.jpg" alt="">

Hi McKevin,
&nbsp;
I looked at the attached code and the NI-Sync property node will not return a serial number from the device without initializing a sync session first.&nbsp; I have modified the code and reattached it below. It was tested with NI-Sync 3.0 and the PXI-6653/6652.&nbsp;

Hello McAndy,
&nbsp;
I put in the the niSync Initialize before the Property Node,
but I still get FFFF as the serial number for the PXI-6651,52,53.
&nbsp;
PXI-6682 report the same SN as MAX.
