Please tell me I missed something. I can't seem to find a "DAQmx Is Device Reserved.vi?" And for the intended use case, I don't even care who has it reserved if it wasn't this target.
I could try this
But that of course, has the fatal flaw of Releasing the chassis if I already HAD a reservation from this target and possibly leading to a race for resources. Worse I'm on simulated devices trying to do a POC so I can buy the right Hardware and both the LabVIEW help and DAQmx help a rather silent on the exact error output (if any) comes from trying to reserve a reserved device with A Previously reserved by this target! Is that an error warning or who-cares. B) Reserved elsewhere and "Override? ... False. Error? Warning? nothing?
(Some days the help doesn't)
