PXI-8170 Series Installation
This chapter contains basic instructions for setting up the PXI-8170
embedded computer.
You can use this chapter as a guide to configure and operate your PXI
system quickly using the PXI-8170 Series. This chapter assumes that you
intend to perform a basic configuration as follows:
• You have one PXI mainframe in which you will be using the PXI-8170.
• You will use the default settings.
The PXI-8170 Series default settings are listed below. If you want to use
a different configuration, refer to Appendix A,
Configuring the PXI-8170
Series , for information about changing the settings.
Caution Electrostatic discharge can damage several components on your PXI-8170
module. To avoid such damage in handling the module, touch the antistatic plastic package
to a metal part of your PXI mainframe before removing the module from the package.
