I have attached the error message I recieve when attempting to utilize the I/O Studio. Any thoughts?

Glad to see it isn't just me! I was just going to post that I/O Studio seems like a really great tool - Too bad it doesn't work!

Same message window comes up for me.

This is caused by a duplicate entry in your Signal, Terminal, or Label list. We're working on a complete answer, but here are the basic steps to take to resolve this:

1. Go to MMPD > Administration > I/O lists

2. Select Terminal, Label, and Signal (one at a time) from the drop-down.

3. Clean the lists to look for duplicates. Specifically, make sure there are no leading spaces in any of these 3 lists. You're looking for entries that are identical except for a leading space. For example " BNC" and "BNC".

Note: Normally any labels, signals or terminals with leading spaces should sort to the top of the list in MMPD and can be removed easily.

Removing the duplicates from these lists allows I/O Studio to run.

As mentioned previously, we're still investigating and will update everyone with more information when done, but the steps above work for the people we've helped with this so far.

We apologize for the inconvenience.

Sincerely,

Thanks Randy. Just got the same info from Jeff Oakes.

For everyone else - the problem in my I/O list was that I had an entry that had a space before the text. I deleted that entry, closed out of MMPD, opened it up again and I/O Studio fired right up.

Hope this helps everyone.

I found 2 entries and corrected them.

I/O Studio now opens.

Thank You!
