3.2 Monitoring the PXES-2780

ADLINK provides a GUI program (PXES-2780 Chassis Remote

Mon. Utility) to monitor the status of the PXES-2780.

As shown, the utility is divided into three interface categories: Con-

nect Control, Remote Status & Control, and Chassis Status.

NOTE:

NOTE:

The PXES-2780 Chassis Remote Monitoring utility is only com-
patible with ADLINK PXI Express controllers such as the PXIe-
3975. 3rd party embedded controllers require dedicate pro-
gramming to enable system monitoring, as listed in the PXES-
2780 Function Library Reference documentation, or use of a
remote PC to monitor the PXES-2780 via RS-232 serial port.
