Because of the annoying errors where an existing task of the same name exists following an error: ``` % Check if free taskMap = dabs.ni.daqmx.Task.getTaskMap; if any(strcmp(taskMap.keys, obj.taskName)) oldTask = taskMap(obj.taskName); disp(['Deleting existing task "' obj.taskName '"']); delete(oldTask); end ``` Check that fixes our problem. If so, write a function that wraps task creation so all functions use it and we avoid this annoying problem.
