Chapter 2 Installation and Configuration
© National Instruments Corporation 2-9 NI PXIe-1065 User Manual
This section contains general installation instructions for installing a
peripheral module in a NI PXIe-1065 chassis. Refer to your peripheral
module user manual for specific instructions and warnings. To install a
module, complete the following steps:
1. Connect the AC power source to the PXI Express chassis before
installing the module. The AC power cord grounds the chassis and
protects it from electrical damage while you install the module.
2. Ensure that the chassis is powered off.
3. Install a module into a chassis slot by first placing the module card
PCB into the front of the card guides (top and bottom), as shown in
Figure 2-5. Slide the module to the rear of the chassis, making sure that
the injector/ejector handle is pushed down as shown in Figure 2-5.
4. When you begin to feel resistance, push up on the injector/ejector
handle to fully seat the module into the chassis frame. Secure the
module front panel to the chassis using the module front-panel
mounting screws.
