If this situation occurs after you change the configuration, perform the
following steps to reconfigure the VXIpc-800.
1. Turn your computer off.
Warning: To protect both yourself and the mainframe from electrical hazards, the

on the VXIpc-800 module.
2. Change switch S9 to the OFF position as shown in Figure 3-9b to
restore the factory configuration.

computer.

configuration, you will have to repeat these steps, modifying your
configuration until a final configuration is reached.
