Installing the PXI-6533, PXI-6534, or PXI-7030/6533

You can install a PXI-653X or PXI-7030/6533 device any available 5 V
peripheral slot in your PXI or CompactPCI chassis.

Note

Your PXI device has connections to several reserved lines on the CompactPCI J2

connector. Before installing a PXI device in a CompactPCI system that uses J2 connector
lines for purposes other than PXI, see Appendix C,

Connecting Signals with Accessories

.

1.

Turn off and unplug your PXI or CompactPCI chassis.

2.

Choose an unused PXI or CompactPCI 5 V peripheral slot.

Tip

For maximum performance of your CompactPCI, install the PXI-653X in a slot that

supports bus arbitration or bus-master cards. The PXI-653X contains onboard bus-master
DMA logic that can operate only in such a slot. If you install in a slot that does not support
bus masters, you must disable the PXI-653X onboard DMA controller using your software.
PXI-compliant chassis have bus arbitration for all slots.

3.

Remove the filler panel for the peripheral slot you have chosen.

4.

Touch a metal part on your chassis to discharge any static electricity
that might be on your clothes or body.

5.

fully inject the device into place.

6.

Screw the front panel of the PXI-653X to the front panel mounting rails
of the PXI or CompactPCI chassis.

7.

Visually verify the installation. Make sure the device is not touching
other boards or components and is fully in the slot.

8.

Plug in and turn on the PXI or CompactPCI chassis.

Now that your 653X device is installed, it is ready to be configured.
